  • Impacted Requirements: This affects compliance with internal control standards for major federal programs.

Finding Text

One important aspect of the internal control structure is the segregation of duties among employees to prevent an individual employee from handling duties which are incompatible. We noted one individual has control over portions of one or more of the following areas for the District relating to major federal programs; cash, receipts, disbursements, capital assets, payroll, financial reporting, journal entries and school lunch program. See finding 2022‑001.
