Audit 348933

Finding 2024-001 – Internal Controls over Payroll Tracking & Recording Assistance Listing #: ALL Federal Awards: All Criteria: In accordance with the Uniform Guidance’s compensation requirements (2 CFR 200.430), payroll systems must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed and supported by a system of internal controls that provides reasonable assurances that charges are accurate; allowable and reasonable; and properly allocated amongst programs. Condition: During our testing of 40 payroll transactions, we noted six instances where the time charged on the employee’s timesheet by program did not agree to the programs actually charged in the general ledger, and ultimately billed to the applicable grant award. Thes errors identified occurred earlier in the fiscal year and prior to the completion of the FY 2023 audit when management became aware of the issue and implemented additional controls. Cause: The Organization summarizes employee timesheet data amongst programs on a reclass spreadsheet, which serves as the basis for entry into the general ledger. It appears there were errors when entering time from the timesheet into the reclass spreadsheet, which were not detected as a secondary review was not performed. After the issue was brought to the attention of management during the FY 2023 audit which was conducted in February 2024, no similar errors were detected in our sample. Effect: The effect of the errors noted above was immaterial; however, an inherent risk exists that errors could be material without a sufficient review process. Questioned Costs: N/A Repeat Finding: Yes Recommendation: As noted above, we recommend the Organization continue monitoring the recording of payroll costs to ensure that payroll costs are captured and recorded correctly in the financial management system. Response: We concur with the Finding. Additional controls were implemented late in fiscal year 2024 to ensure accurate recording of time charged to programs as reflected on the employee’s timesheet, which included training and periodic reviews of payroll transactions. As noted above, the errors cited were prior to those controls implemented.

Finding 2024-001 – Internal Controls over Payroll Tracking & Recording Assistance Listing #: ALL Federal Awards: All Criteria: In accordance with the Uniform Guidance’s compensation requirements (2 CFR 200.430), payroll systems must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed and supported by a system of internal controls that provides reasonable assurances that charges are accurate; allowable and reasonable; and properly allocated amongst programs. Condition: During our testing of 40 payroll transactions, we noted six instances where the time charged on the employee’s timesheet by program did not agree to the programs actually charged in the general ledger, and ultimately billed to the applicable grant award.

Thes errors identified occurred earlier in the fiscal year and prior to the completion of the FY 2023 audit when management became aware of the issue and implemented additional controls. Cause: The Organization summarizes employee timesheet data amongst programs on a reclass spreadsheet, which serves as the basis for entry into the general ledger. It appears there were errors when entering time from the timesheet into the reclass spreadsheet, which were not detected as a secondary review was not performed. After the issue was brought to the attention of management during the FY 2023 audit which was conducted in February 2024, no similar errors were detected in our sample. Effect: The effect of the errors noted above was immaterial; however, an inherent risk exists that errors could be material without a sufficient review process. Questioned Costs: N/A Repeat Finding: Yes Recommendation: As noted above, we recommend the Organization continue monitoring the recording of payroll costs to ensure that payroll costs are captured and recorded correctly in the financial management system. Response: We concur with the Finding. Additional controls were implemented late in fiscal year 2024 to ensure accurate recording of time charged to programs as reflected on the employee’s timesheet, which included training and periodic reviews of payroll transactions. As noted above, the errors cited were prior to those controls implemented.
