Post-Audit Notification (PAN) ASAP to PAN – What’s it all about? UCLA Corporate Financial Services with UCLA Audit & Advisory Services
Where we are: • ASAP (Application System Authorization Process): the current email notification of administrative system transactions • DACSS (Distributed Administrative Computing Security System): the system whereby departments/units [Department Security Administrators (DSAs)] are able to set up and maintain their system access security tables under the direction of the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO)
What’s changing? • ASAP is being replaced by web-based PAN (Post-Audit Notification) which was developed at UCOP for system-wide use in conjunction with the Personnel/Payroll System (PPP) • UCLA has expanded the PAN system to interface with the other central administrative applications (BruinBuy/PAC, TOF, DDF, Express, Open Provision)
So what’s new?PAN Enhancement Highlights • Reviewers will receive up to two emails a day ifPANs have been generated for their review. • Mid-morning and Mid-afternoon • The email will contain a link to a secured website. • Reviewers will input their OASIS, BOL, or QDB login ID and password. • Reviewers may also log in to the website at any time during the day to review transactions – no need to wait for the notifying email.
Principles of Financial Accountability Principles of Financial Management UCLA Financial Policy November 30, 1996 Principles of Data Integrity Principles of Regulatory Compliance What does this mean for Reviewers? Http://www.accounting.ucla.edu/
A Reviewer must • review all transactions within two working days of receipt; • inspect each transaction to ensure the Preparer properly fulfilled his or her responsibilities; • ensure that each transaction complies with policy, regulatory, and other requirements;
A Reviewer must • resolve all questions that arise concerning a transaction, or ensure the transaction is reversed until the questions are resolved;
A Reviewer must • if he or she will be absent from work for two or more business days, • 1) notify the DSA so another Reviewer can be assigned (if needed to ensure that there is no interruption in control); and • 2) ensure that alternate responsibility for reviewing transactions has been effectively communicated and documented. (This can most easily be done by email notifications to the CAO and DSA. Otherwise, Reviewers will be held accountable for transactions processed during absences.)
Reminders • All staff MUST receive training before being granted access to online systems. • CAOs are responsible for ensuring that all preparers and reviewers are “qualified” and have received proper training. • UCLA policy prohibits the sharing of passwords.
What’s coming later? • DACSS will be modified later this fiscal year to allow Reviewers to be designated as mandatory or non-mandatory. • Mandatory Reviewers must review all transactions within two working days of receipt. • Non-mandatory Reviewers will not be required to review transactions within the two working day period.
What’s coming later? • All current Reviewers will become Mandatory Reviewers in the DACSS tables when DACSS is modified. • CAOs must determine which Reviewers should be designated as non-mandatory and direct their DSAs to update the DACSS tables accordingly.
Points to Ponder • Everyone involved with a transaction has a responsibility to see that it is accurately and correctly reflected in University records and appropriate to the University and fund source in keeping with applicable prevailing regulations and policies and procedures.
Accessing PAN • Click the link within the email notice, or • Go directly to the PAN system via the Corporate Financial Services Website. Remember that you will not have to wait for the email notice to access PAN on the web.
