AI Summary

  • Core Issue: Employees failed to complete the required PAR for multiple federal awards, leading to incomplete documentation.
  • Impacted Requirements: Timely signatures and approvals for the PAR and Timesheet Certification Form were not obtained for several payroll disbursements.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Ensure all employees and supervisors are trained on the importance of timely completion and approval of payroll documentation.

Finding Text

During our testing, we noted the following exceptions: • Employees completed a Timesheet Certification Form for 2 of 15 payroll disbursements. However, the employees worked on more than one federal award for the payroll period. As such, the employees should have completed a PAR. • The employee did not sign timely the PAR or Timesheet Certification Form for 3 of 15 payroll disbursements. • The supervisor did not approve timely the PAR or Timesheet Certification Form for 8 of 15 payroll disbursements.

Corrective Action Plan

The Department will provide additional training to employees regarding the PAR process and their responsibilities under the federal time reporting policy. Program Financial Managers will work directly with staff to ensure PAR documentation is completed timely and in accordance with policy.
