Institution Response The University agrees with the finding.

The Institute provided training to their staff to ensure that all disbursements included all the required documentation in accordance with the University's policy. This training was carried out for all personnel involved in the purchasing process. In addition, the University hired a public accounting firm to carry out an internal audit process which included actions that were aimed at resolving this finding. No cases of this nature were identified after the corrective action plan was implemented. Name (s) of the Contact Person (s) Responsible for Corrective Action Ramon L.

This is a repeat finding that was only first reported to Met Council at the end of the fiscal year covered by this audit. As such, the finding could not possibly have been corrected until fiscal year 2023. The policies to ensure the accuracy of our payroll and accounts payable processes were immediately adopted after the receipt of the fiscal year 2021 audit recommendation at the end of the 2022 fiscal year. As a result, our recommended course of action, as stated below, remains unchanged from the prior year: Payroll Review Electronic timesheets are completed and submitted by employees through the payroll system. All timesheets must be approved electronically by an employee's supervisor. The Senior Human Resources Manager, Benefits, reviews and signs the preprocessing payroll register prior to submission. Once approved the Payroll/Human Resources Administrator submits the payroll to the payroll administrator for processing. The Payroll/Human Resources Administrator sends the signed preprocessing register by email to the Managing Director of Human Resources, the Controller, and the Senior Budget Director listing all the exceptions for the current payroll. The Fiscal Project Manager then, through the payroll administrator, will generate a salary summary that includes a listing of the prior payroll and the current payroll indicating any differences. The fiscal project manager then sends the last page of the processed payroll register along with the salary summary to the Managing Director of Human Resources and the Controller for their review and signature approval. The payroll journal entry is generated by the Fiscal Project Manager and uploaded into the accounting software for review and approval by the Controller. Accounts Payable ("AP") Review The AP Accountant saves a PDF of each invoice (whether received electronically or on paper) and sends an email together with the invoice to the respective program director for approval. The program directors approve and code the invoices by signature which they then email back to the AP team for processing. When an invoice is coded to be charged to a grant ? the invoice is also placed in a folder by date on the shared drive for the Budget Department to review and approve the grant coding on each invoice. Once the coding is initialed and dated by the Senior Director of Budgets and Grants, it is entered into our accounting software for AP processing.

Condition: Expenditures claimed on the project's cumulative June 30, 2022 quarterly report did not match the accounting records. Total expenditures reported in the district's accounting records were $2,128,915 and total expenditures reported on the ISBE June 30, 2022 expenditure report was $2,152,978. Difference of $24,063 was a result of a journal entry in which funds got moved within the grant from function 2210 object 300 to function 2230 object 300. The $24,063 was reported under function 2230 object 300 but was not removed from function 2210 object 300 on the June 30, 2022 expenditure report. The July 31, 2022 expenditure report, function 2210 object 300 was corrected by the District to report the proper amount of expenses so there will be no questioned cost, only an error in reporting. Plan: To avoid this reporting issue, the District needs to ensure that all records accurately reflect the appropriate expenditures of the grant program and appropriate expenditure reports are filed. Anticipated Date of Completion: July 31, 2022 Name of Contact Person: Lisa Schuenke, Assistant Superintendent of Finance and Human Resources Management Response: The District is aware of the discrepancy and has already corrected the issue on their July 31, 2022 expenditure report filed with ISBE.

Condition: Quarterly expenditure reports for the projects expenditures were not timely filed for ARP ESSER - Homeless Children and Youth (1 of 2 quarters required). Plan: To avoid this reporting and internal control issue, the District should schedule the due dates of all expenditure reports in order to avoid late filings. Anticipated Date of Completion: June 30, 2023 Name of Contact Person: Lisa Schuenke, Assistant Superintendent of Finance and Human Resources Management Response: This District is aware of the issue and has determined that the majority of the problem occurs when a grant is first approved, and the first reporting period is missed or if a grant continues into subsequent project years. Management has found a dashboard within IWAS that has a listing of all grants by project year and dates that the grants and budgets are approved that will help determine when the first expenditure reports are due. Additionally, management will work on a process to ensure that expenditure reports are no longer missed or filed late.

Corrective Action Plan The Enterprise City Board of Education (the Board) respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended September 30, 2022. Carr, Riggs & Ingram, LLC 1117 Boll Weevil Circle Enterprise, AL 36330 The finding from the September 30, 2022 schedule of findings and questioned costs is discussed below. The finding is numbered consistent with the number assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS- FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT No such findings in the current year. FINDINGS - FEDERAL AWARDS PROGRAM AUDITS Item 2022-001 - Special Tests and Provisions - Wage Rate Requirements Recommendation: 2 CFR 200.303 requires the non-Federal entity to "(a) establish and maintain effective internal controls over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award." 2 CFR 200.326 and 29 CFR Part 5, Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to Contracts Governing Federally Financed and Assisted Construction (DOL Regulations) require the contractor or subcontractor to submit to the nonfederal entity weekly, for each week in which any contract work is performed, a copy of the payroll and a statement of compliance (certified payrolls). We recommend the strengthening of controls to ensure the prevailing wage rate clauses are included in the contracts and that certified payrolls are received for each week in which construction work is performed. The Chief School Financial Officer, Pam Christian, should review documentation for inclusion of the prevailing wage rate clauses in construction contracts as part of the bid process prior to expenditures being made. She should also review all invoices received from contractors and subcontractors to ensure that the certified payroll information is received for all weeks for which construction work is performed. Action Taken: Management has reviewed the requirements of 2 CFR Section 200.303 and 2 CFR 200.326 relating to wage rate requirements and agrees with the recommendation. Management will communicate with all contractors and subcontractors regarding the wage rate requirements and will implement additional procedures, effective May 1, 2023, stating that the Chief School Financial Officer, Pam Christian, will review documentation for inclusion of the prevailing wage rate clauses in construction contracts as part of the bid process prior to expenditures being made. She will also review all invoices received from contractors and subcontractors to ensure that the certified payroll information is received for all weeks for which construction work is performed.
