USAS Profile Review and Cleanup Procedures
Cash in the State Treasury in USAS

Background

For agencies who have controlling interest in an appropriated fund or a dedicated account in the state treasury, the cash balance reported on the AFR must agree with the USAS balance. The correct amount to be reported can be found by inquiring in USAS using the Cash Control Summary Inquiry (57) screen or by ordering a DAFR8660 as the controlling agency.

Suspense funds are no longer reported in a fiduciary fund type, as established by GASB 84. All suspense fund activity must be reported in a governmental or proprietary fund type at fiscal year-end. Revenues and expenditures must be accrued as applicable. Please contact your financial reporting analyst with any questions.

Risk Areas

Incorrectly reporting the balance of Cash in the State Treasury.

Incorrectly reported balances will be considered in noncompliance with annual financial reporting requirements. These reports will be rejected and returned to the agency for resubmission.

USAS Screens Reports and Procedures

Cash Control Summary Inquiry (57) Screen

Note: The following 57 screen does not designate an AY; therefore, the balance includes all AYs. The correct balance to report is the fund cash balance (FUND CASH BAL). The available cash balance (AVAIL CASH BAL) has been reduced by cash reserved for payroll, (BT16) but these funds are still in the state treasury and should be reported. The inquiry month of 05 is the calendar month of May. The inquiry year of CY is fiscal year CY. Enter the number of the current calendar month to obtain the current cash balances.

DAFR8660 Fund Cash History by Agency Including Shared Funds Report

DAFR8660 provides document level information for appropriated funds in USAS. It reflects activity in GL account 0045–Cash in State Treasury by fiscal month. See the following Report Request Profile (91) screen for details on requesting this report. The month for which detail is desired is designated by PERIOD (fiscal month). To receive activity for the entire year, twelve reports are required.

Note: Input a value of C in the SPEC SEL 1 field to order the report as the controlling agency. If an appropriated fund range is not specified, activity for all funds that an agency controls will be reported. When an agency controls the fund, they can receive a complete report of all activity in the fund; in contrast, if an agency shares the fund but does not control it, they will receive a report with only their activity in the fund.

The DAFR8660 can be ordered by the controlling agency. The sign on the amount is the effect on cash. A plus sign is a debit to cash and a minus is a credit to cash. The ‘R’ reversal indicator can be disregarded for the effect on cash; however, it should be considered for the impact of the T-code. The subtotal amount is the net of the activity for the AY and the agency. Following the subtotal is the activity in the fund for the agency for the AY. If the net of the activity is $0.00, there will be activity in more than one agency. The ending balance for the AY is the total of the beginning balance for the AY and the net activity of all agencies included in the report. The ending balance in the fund for all AYs is the amount that the controlling agency would report.

DAFR8680 Detail Account Activity by Fund Report

The DAFR8680 report is like the DAFR8660 in that it is a document level report, but different in that it is possible to display activity in all GL accounts. If selected GL account detail is wanted, a range of GL numbers may be entered on the special select GL ACCT field. This report may be useful to account for payroll suspense fund activity or other suspense funds. This report will reflect activity in nominal accounts if included in the GL Account range selected. Keep in mind, however, that this is a document level report. If ordered for an operating fund with a lot of activity for all GL accounts, it could be a very large report.

Report CR_101 – Cash in State Treasury

Type Listing
Source GL table
Purpose To compare the Cash in State Treasury (CIST) amounts reflected on USAS 57 screen and the net of GL accounts 0045, 0047, 0048 and 0451. These amounts must be equal.

Procedures

  1. Review report and determine the correct Cash in State Treasury amount.

    If the amounts are equal, no further action is needed because the amount on the 57 screen equals the amount reported on the USAS balance sheet. An adjusting entry is necessary when the amounts do not reconcile. Determine the correct amount and select the appropriate T-code to be used to adjust the GL balances. Direct any questions regarding T-codes to your financial reporting analyst.

  2. Ensure that the CIST amount on the 57 screen reconciles to the net of GL accounts 0045, 0047, 0048 and 0451.

    After you have entered correcting transactions, contact your financial reporting analyst to request an updated CR_101 report. Confirm that the CIST reflected on the 57 screen and the net of GL accounts 0045, 0047, 0048 and 0451 reconcile.
