RECONCILIATIONS - 8060-AUG-2015

(Revised: 08/2015)

All centralized State Treasury System (CTS) accounts will be reconciled promptly at the end of each month. See SAM sections 79007923 and 7967. This does not preclude reconciliations at other times of the month as considered necessary by the department.

At the end of each period, the State Controller’s Office (SCO) issues a CTS Statement for each CTS account. If there is an item on the statement that you cannot identify, contact the SCO for explanation.

If it is determined by the reconciliation that an error has been made, departments will notify the State Treasurer's Office (STO) Bank Reconciliation Section. DO NOT NOTIFY THE BANK.

CTS Statement Errors:

  1. If a department does not receive credit for a deposit, the department will verify that all of the information on the Report of Deposit is complete and accurate. The department will send a legible photocopy of the Report of Deposit on white letter size paper only.DO NOT send agency or bank copies.
  2. If there is a discrepancy in the amount of credit, the department will send photocopies of the Report of Deposit and the CTS statement with the item highlighted and a brief letter of explanation.
