2022-002 Timesheets Recommendation: We recommend the Organization adhere to its policies and procedures for approving timesheets and reevaluate if more time should be provided for supervisor signoff. Auditee response: Child-Parent Centers acknowledges and agrees with this finding. Immediately after the finding, we implemented the following review measures to ensure that this issue is resolved. The Time and Leave manager runs a "Timecard Approval" report, during the biweekly timesheet processing before payroll processing. This report indicates any missing approvals. Any identified employee and their supervisor are contacted to review and approve timesheets. In the event that a supervisor has failed to approve the timesheet, the Time and Leave Manager retains all documentation of contact and approves the timesheet. A timesheet correction form is also completed, if necessary, so as to not over/ under pay an employee. Announcements are posted in our HRIS to remind employees and supervisors of the need for approvals. During multi-department meetings, announcements are made to approve timesheets.

2022-004 Grant Funds Disbursement Major Program U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Pass-through: Texas General Land Office and Texas Department of Agriculture Community Development Block Grants AL: 14.228 Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan It is always the intention of the Town of Refugio to comply with all grant requirements. The Town does not implement online banking. Bank statements are received around the 10th of the next month. The Town works closely with grant administrators, and they monitor the Comptroller?s website for disbursements made to the Town. The grant administrators stated that for a period in August and September 2022 the Comptroller?s website was not updating anything beyond July release dates. On August 30, 2022, the administrator asked the Town to reach out to the bank to see if the Town had received any direct deposits. The bank was contacted near the end of the day on August 30, 2022, and they stated that direct deposit funds were received August 26, 2022. The responsible party was out the next day (August 31, 2022) so the check was written on September 1, 2022 upon their return to the office. With the completion of cross-training for all programs, it is anticipated that this will not be an issue in the future. There will be a second person fully trained to make the disbursements in the proper timeframes.

MAJOR FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAM AUDIT 2022-006 - Education Stabilization Fund - Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund - Assistance Listing No. 84.425D and ARP Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund - Assistance Listing No. 84.425U; Grant Period - For the year ended June 30, 2022 Audit Finding: Material Weakness Condition: The internal controls over the payroll process did not identify the same payroll listed on the federal expenditure being claimed twice under this federal program. Criteria: Proper functioning internal controls would result in the District having control procedures in place to identify this duplication. Cause: The system of controls over the Education Stabilization Fund did not operate properly to allow for the District to identify the duplicate weeks of payroll being claimed as part of this grant. Effect: The District claimed duplicate payroll for 2 of 4 employees selected for testing. Context: A sample of 4 employees totaling $152,615 was selected for testing from a population of 38 employees totaling $408,826. The test found duplicate payroll claimed under the federal program for 2 of 4 employees selected for testing with questioned costs totaling $662. Questioned Cost: $662 Recommendation: The District's internal control system over the federal payroll claiming process related to the Education Stabilization Fund should be reviewed and modified to prevent future errors. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Employees will be allocated to the correct code as soon as notified allowing financial reports to reflect true payroll totals for salaries/benefits to all funds. Documentation for federal/single funded employees will be retained for 7 years. Payroll will have a list of employees who are paid by federal/state grants; a memo will be generated of these employees by the business manager by August 1st to be provided to the payroll office.

FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS ? MAJOR FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAM AUDIT 2022-005 - Education Stabilization Fund - Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund - Assistance Listing No. 84.425D and ARP Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund - Assistance Listing No. 84.425U; Grant Period - For the year ended June 30, 2022 Audit Finding: Material Weakness Condition: The internal controls over the federal expense approval process were not operating properly. As a result, we were unable to review approval for a selection of expenses claimed as part of the Education Stabilization Funds. Criteria: The District's policy is to have a purchase order signed by the Business Manager for all purchases. For invoices paid with a check, the District's policy is to have three authorized check signors which provides approval for payment. For all other types of payment, the District's policy is inconsistent for expense approval. Proper functioning internal controls would result in the District having consistent control procedures in place for expense approval. Cause: The system of controls over the Education Stabilization Fund did not operate properly to allow for the District to provide evidence of both the purchase order approval and the disbursement approval for 8 of 10 items selected for testing as part of the allowable cost testwork performed. Effect: The District was unable to provide documentation to verify these federal expenditures were approved. Context: A sample of 10 expenditures totaling $360,908 was selected for testing from a population of 44 expenditures totaling $878,544. We were unable to review a signed purchase order for 5 of 10 expenditures selected for testing. The District did not have a consistent method for approval of expenditures and therefore we were unable to review signed expense approval for 7 of 10 expenditures. For 1 of 10 items selected for testing, we were unable to review any form of supporting documentation and therefore is considered a questioned cost totaling $8,527. Questioned Cost: $8,527 Recommendation: The District's internal control system should be modified to document approval of all federal expenditures. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Going forward, all expenses will have an invoice, PO, Requisition, and any other supporting documentation with the check stub for each purchase on file for 7 years.

As a result, we were unable to obtain a complete population of the federal expenditures that were claimed as part of the Education Stabilization Funds. Criteria: Proper functioning internal controls would result in the District having control procedures in place for grant management. Cause: There were no controls in place to allow the proper coding of expenditures to reflect the federal funds that were incurred and therefore a complete population of expenditures was unable to be determined. Effect: The District was unable to provide a complete listing of federal expenditures generated by their general ledger system to serve as the complete population to audit the federal expenditures being claimed under the Education Stabilization Fund. Recommendation: The District's internal control system over grant management related to the Education Stabilization Fund should be reviewed and modified to allow for proper management of grants and coding of expenditures which will lead to accurate report generation. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: In the future the District business office will correctly allocate and code all transactions upon business manager approval of purchase requisitions. This will eliminate the need to later create journal entries to move transactions to the correct fund later and capture all expenses correctly the first time they are entered. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Alanna Huck, Superintendent. Anticipated Completion Date: December 31, 2023. If the Federal Audit Clearinghouse has questions regarding this plan, please call Alanna Huck at 570-724-4424. Sincerely yours, Alanna Huck Wellsboro Area School District Superintendent
