SB 1177 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

General appropriations; making appropriations to multiple agencies. Effective date.

SB 1177 updates Oklahoma's rules for state agency payroll and claims processing. It authorizes the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services (OMES) to create standard forms and electronic systems for agencies to submit payroll and claims, allowing agencies to charge multiple fund accounts on a single claim. The bill requires OMES to approve claims after audit and mandates payroll records show total earnings, withholdings, and net pay per employee, with withholdings permitted to be paid to entities in lump sums. This bill directly affects all state agencies that handle employee pay and financial claims.
