Frequently Asked Questions: MIP Workflow – Sequencing/PALT

Question


How and when do updates in the Sequencing Tool affect data in the PALT Tool?

Answer


Any updates to Sequencing funding data by a MOD RMC Sequencing Lead must first be approved by a FEMA Regional Sequencing Lead through the Sequencing Tool approval process before those changes are reflected in the PALT Tool. Once this approval occurs, the updates in the Sequencing Tool in the relevant fiscal year are reflected immediately in the PALT Tool under County Mapping Activities.

Any changes made to the Sequencing data by a FEMA Regional Sequencing Lead, MOD Alexandria Sequencing Lead, or FEMA HQ are automatically approved in the Sequencing Tool approval process, so changes made to the Sequencing funding data by these users are reflected immediately in the PALT Tool under County Mapping Activities.

The PALT Tool continuously reads the Last Approved Values for a county or Special Project from the Sequencing Tool.
