AI Summary

  • Core Issue: One employee has too much control over critical financial areas, risking incompatible duties.
  • Impacted Requirements: This violates the principle of segregation of duties, which is essential for internal controls.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Review and redistribute responsibilities to ensure no single employee manages conflicting tasks.

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 federal programs; cash, wire transfers, journal entries, School lunch program and computer systems. See finding 2022-001.
