AI Summary

  • Core Issue: One employee has too much control over multiple financial areas, increasing the risk of errors or fraud.
  • Impacted Requirements: This violates the principle of segregation of duties, which is crucial for effective internal controls.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Reassign responsibilities to ensure no single employee manages incompatible duties across cash, disbursements, and other key areas.

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, disbursements, inventories, payroll, receipts, financial reporting, school nutrition program and journal entries. See finding 2022-001.
