   Presenter: SCOA Technical Committee | National Treasury | March 2013
2. BACKGROUND Pre 1 April 2013 SCOA consumables were a sub-category of inventory; Post 1 April 2013:
3. APPROACH Searched the entire SCOA for items that meet the definition of inventory and consumables (e.g. items prev. in operating payments); Split the old Inventory category into Consumables and Inventory category at the same level, and added relevant sub-categories; Renamed duplicates – items that were inventory & consumables (Medicine and first aid kits);
4. APPROACH d) Identified categories that would be made available only to specific departments; e) Operating Payments category caters for services that are related to the operations of the department The following items are goods thus removed from Operating Payments : - Gifts - Library Material - Achievements and Awards
5. OLD VS NEW Inventory categories on level 4 reporting
