1 Departmental Funds Receipting Authority: History: Source of Authority: Vice Chancellor Business Affairs Effective November 1, 1990, entitled Cash Receipts ; updated May 26, 1999, updated November 2, 2002; updated July 1, 2006; updated December 21, 2011 and renamed Department Funds Receipting ; supersedes former Administration Policy No. CSH1.10, Cash Receipts ; updated June 14, 2016 Office of State Controller, University Cash Management Plan Related Links: Responsible Office: Cashier s Office I. Purpose University departments that receive funds must be committed to strong internal controls of receipts to prevent mishandling of funds and safeguarding against loss. Internal controls related to university receipts are the business practices established to ensure all funds received are deposited in the bank and recorded in the Banner Finance System accurately and timely. Establishing and following written procedures that include separation of duties and month-end reconciliations are the key business processes used to ensure the safeguarding of university receipts. Strong internal controls also protect employees from being falsely accused of mishandling funds (theft, embezzlement) by defining crosschecking roles for funds handling responsibilities. II. Policy A. Funds 1. University funds may be received in the form of: a. Coins, currency, checks, money orders, and traveler s checks b. Electronic funds transfers, ACH and wires Departmental Funds Receipting Page 1 of 9
2 c. Credit and debit card transactions Refer to Credit Card Merchant Services Policy for implementation guidelines and compliance requirements 2. International payments must be received in U.S. dollars. B. General Statement 1. The Associate Vice Chancellor Finance & Controller (AVCF&C) has the authority to establish banking arrangements for the university. No school, department, or activity of the university is permitted to open a bank account without written approval from the AVCF&C. 2. All departments receiving cash in any form are responsible for complying with the cash receipting requirements of this policy. In addition, departments receiving cash as a part of their normal operation are responsible for maintaining a receipting process consistent with university policy, which may include additional procedures with key internal controls tailored to the specific unit. 3. Departments are periodically reviewed for compliance to this policy. The departmental head is responsible for implementing and maintaining internal controls by establishing written departmental procedures and must ensure compliance with the university departmental funds receipting policy. Departments not in compliance may lose the privilege of collecting funds. 4. The following sources should be utilized to further understand this policy: Source Policy Description Contains general policy and procedures for Departmental Funds Receipting Procedure Contains specific processing guidelines and requirements for implementing and maintaining a receipting process for receiving funds Cashier Interprets and explains policy Provides training on receipting procedures - Finance Training Course RCT201 Deposit Transmittals Controller Approves departmental requests for funds receipting privileges C. Application and Approval for Funds Receipting Privileges Departmental Funds Receipting Page 2 of 9
3 1. All departments intending to receive funds as a part of their normal operation must submit an electronic request form to the Controller for approval of departmental funds receipting privileges. This form is located on the Forms page on the Controller s home web page (see Related Links above). Each receipting purpose must be approved and the Finance Training Course RCT201 Deposit Transmittals successfully completed before the department may collect any funds. 2. A new request form for departmental funds receipting privileges must be submitted when receipting purposes, fund numbers or department personnel change. 3. Funds receipting privileges must be renewed annually. Expiration notifications are sent requesting a new form be submitted to the Controller for renewal. D. Separation of Duties Departments must have written procedures that document the funds handling process and ensure that adequate staff is available to enable separation of duties from the individuals receiving, depositing and reconciling departmental funds. E. Recording of Funds Receipted 1. All university departments and activities shall record all cash receipts as soon as the funds are received. 2. Departments and activities that receive cash receipts as a part of their normal day-to-day operations must establish an audit record. The audit record may require a log or receipt book. 3. When the use of receipt books is appropriate, departments must use official UNCW receipt books purchased through the Cashier's Office. The Cashier's Office requires departments to keep unused receipt books in the Cashier's Office for safekeeping. F. Reconciliation of Funds Monthly departmental reconciliations must be performed by someone other than the person receiving the funds and the person preparing the deposit. Reconciliations involve comparing each copy of the validated university deposit to the revenue and/or expenditure detail transactions posted in the Banner Finance reports. Prompt followup and resolution within 60 days for any discrepancies is required. These steps are necessary to ensure that all funds deposited into the University s bank are properly recorded in the general ledger system and would detect data entry errors in the Banner fund/account as well as bank errors or employee theft Departmental Funds Receipting Page 3 of 9
