Our CPE Program Manager Lisa Vallad recently completed her review and analysis of the OUC’s Continuing Professional Education (CPE) courses during the 2nd quarter of FY 2014.
During three days in November-December, we offered 11 courses at the 1800 Grant Street location. Typically, we have about 50 individual attendees on each day of CPE.
CU EthicsLine provides a way to anonymously report concerns involving fiscal misconduct, violations of state or federal law, serious or recurring violations of university policy, or gross waste of university funds or property.
The reporting service is provided by EthicsPoint, an independent company that provides similar services for hundreds of companies and universities. Options for 24/7 reporting are via a toll-free phone number (1.800.677.5590) or online (www.Ethicspoint.com).
The following topics are on the agenda for the Dec 16 Controllers’ meeting:
Campus Updates; eReport (Annual Financial Report); OUC Changes; CORE Update; Capitalizing Software; Accounts Receivable (AR) Waiver.
Questions on discussion points from this meeting – or any other Controllers’ meeting – should be directed to the appropriate campus controller.
We've reached a turning point: the external audit is now officially over. And this year the process was marked by a singular event: no questions from the State on our J-Rec.
We had a terrific response to our Dec 5 Continuing Professional Education (CPE) course schedule.
Most of the courses offered that day filled to capacity. After a few cancellations due to weather, we were able to accommodate additional individuals on the wait lists.
We'll provide a recap of participant evaluations shortly. In the meantime, feel free to review next quarter's CPE. Our Feb 18 courses are all new and are described on the CPE website at www.cu.edu/controller/cpe/?page_id=1504.
At the Nov 18 Controllers' meeting, the following topics are on the agenda for discussion:
Campus updates; Alcohol policy and procedures; Advancement; Fund 98 feed to COFRS; CORE Update; Auxiliary Codes in Cognos Reports; Fiscal Certification.
Questions on discussion points from this and any other Controllers’ meeting should be directed to the appropriate campus controller.
If you aren’t reading Carl’s m-Fin blog, you’re missing some very interesting developments in the Cognos Reporting System. Here’s a recent example:
The new m-Fin ACCOUNT ACTUALS PERIOD BY FISCAL YEAR report summarizes Account ChartField values (as the report title indicates) across the accounting periods of multiple fiscal years. History in your hands!
You can review historical cash balances on a clinical trial … take a look at salary over the years … or monitor operating expenditures.
But there’s more.
The OUC offered several Continuing Professional Education (CPE) courses during mid-November. We'll provide analytics on the November activities later this month but in the meantime, we still have one day of CPE left this quarter.
Registration is open for most of the courses scheduled for Thursday, December 5:
If your department is responsible for billing external entities, you know what a complicated, manual process that can sometimes be.
The OUC’s Financial & Reporting Systems team can help you evaluate your business process and enhance it with online bills and deposits through the PeopleSoft Finance System. The Billing and Accounts Receivable modules are being used by large and small organizational units across CU to speed processing, ensure accuracy, and provide monitoring of payments.
