Overview of revenue to cash Revenue to Cash involves all the activities related to revenue and cash management from generation, collection, recording of revenue to distribution of funds to the ministries. It also involves management and control of the actual and forecasted cash inflows and outflows. 1.1 Introduction
The Revenue to Cash end to end process comprises 8 key sub-processes: Identify Revenue Sources; Revenue Collections; Exchequer Release Process; Perform Bank Reconciliations; Manage Cash Position; Perform Forecasting; Manage Bank Accounts; Debt Management 1.2 Revenue to Cash Sub-processes
2.0 Perform Bank Reconciliations This sub process involves the automated reconciliation of the bank statement received from CBK electronically and the payment transactions posted in the general ledger in the IFMIS system. After the reconciliation program is executed, updates and resolution of errors are performed to keep both CBK and the ministry records in sync. A bank statement can refer to payments, receipts, cash flows, miscellaneous transactions, open interface transactions, or journal entry lines, credit card activity, and journal entries between ministries. In the target process, automating bank reconciliation dramatically reduces the administrative time and costs and automatically updates the general ledger. The Cash Management Bank Statement Open Interface can be used to load the bank statement information supplied by CBK, or department users can manually enter the bank statement data. The system retains all bank statement information for audit and reference purposes. Once the detailed bank statement information is entered/ uploaded into the system, the reconciliation process can begin with the processed system transactions.
2.0 Perform Bank Reconciliations cont.. During the reconciliation process, miscellaneous transactions can be created for bank-originated entries, such as bank charges and interest. Users can also manually enter Payables payments or Receivables receipts. The automatic reconciliation process can be set up to create miscellaneous transactions automatically.
2.0.1 Bank Reconciliation Methods • The Cash Management module provides two methods of reconciliation: • Automatic Bank Reconciliation • Manual Bank Reconciliation • 2.0.1.1 Manual Bank Reconciliation • This method requires you to manually match bank statement details with transactions posted in the system. The method is ideally suited to reconciling bank accounts that have a small volume of monthly transactions. You can also use the manual reconciliation method to reconcile any bank statement details that could not be reconciled automatically • 2.0.1.2 Automatic Bank Reconciliation • Bank statement details are automatically matched and reconciled with system transactions. This method is ideally suited for bank accounts that have a high volume of transactions.

3.0 Manage Cash Position This sub-process involves determining the current cash balances and cash flow of the ministries at any given time supporting officials in their decision making processes and enabling more efficient use of the current cash resources. Generating a cash position gives ministries direct access to daily cash flow data from the operational systems as well as those reported by banks. The department users can define reusable worksheets to easily generate daily cash positions. Users can quickly analyse the daily cash position using a number of different parameters such as currency, accounts, or cash pool. This allows projection of daily cash needs and facilitates forecasting. Determining the cash position can also be done for different departments, and for multiple accounts. The accounting department currently performs this function and will continue to do so.

4.0 Perform Forecasting This sub-process involves using a planning tool that helps the users anticipate the projected cash flows out of a ministry. It allows ministries to project the cash needs and evaluate the liquidity position. In the target process, the cash forecast can be generated for any period of time based on system calculation of expected expenditure subtracted from expected revenue. This activity is currently performed by the accounting department.
5.0 Manage Bank Accounts The sub-process Manage Bank Accounts includes create, change and delete activities of the ‘bank master’. The bank master includes the Bank Routing Number as well as the name and address of the bank. A routing transit number (RTN), routing number and account number. Manage Bank Accounts involves a single access point for defining and maintaining bank account information for payables, receivables, advanced collection and cash management Bank master data might change if a bank relocates or changes its name. If a bank is purchased or merges with another bank, their routing number might be changed. If the routing number stays intact, the bank master name or address is changed. If the routing number is retired, the bank master record is marked for deletion. The bank routing number is used as the key for the bank master record and once entered it cannot be changed. The bank master data is housed in the bank directory. This includes the bank address data and control data (RTN). The bank directory must contain the master data for all the banks that are involved in payment transactions. The bank master is required in order to populate banking information in the supplier master. The routing information is held in one place and must be in IFMIS in order to place it on the supplier master. This reduces the chance for error on the vendor master.

6.0 Debt Management This sub-process is managed by the Debt Management Department and it involves managing the government’s new/ existing loan obligations, servicing of the loans and management of obligation and interest payments. The department is overall responsible for managing the outstanding public debts incurred for internal and external donors. They maintain all these processes in an external system known as the debt recording and management CSDRMS system. The CSDRMS is an integrated tool for recording, monitoring, analysing and reporting public debt for the government. Debt management integrates with the budgeting system as forecasting needs to be performed to determine the budget for loan repayments; it also integrates with the External Resource Department system e-Promis which manages donor projects and grants. The debt obligation will be maintained in currency incurred, and IFMIS will disburse payments in that same currency. Currently all loan and interest repayments are generated on a schedule and manually paid. In the target process, an interface will be developed between the CSDRMS and IFMIS where new/ existing loan obligations will be transmitted to IFMIS. The loan payment requests will also be processed and sent to IFMIS to reduce the outstanding loan obligation/ interest.
