Dear Sir:
As part of our continuing review of the Na
financial management system, we have examini srected
travel and leave transactions in the accounts o the
U.S.S San Jose] to test the quality of disbursing and
related administrative procedures. We reviewed en-
titlements on 60 of 119 vouchers paid in the 6 months
ended July 31, 1976.
--on five vouchers we identified five over
and underpayments for travel totaling
$84, and
--on 14 of 36 vouchers, which showed periods
of leave, we found erroneous delay enroute
computations; 10 members were overcharged
leave and 4 others received leave that
was- not charged to their leave accounts.
We have forwarded 15 informal inquiries to your
disbursing officer describing the travel and leave
deficiencies and have requested that adjustments be
made to correct the errors Since three of the travel
errors were in the $10 to $25 range, we have requested
the Navy Finance Center to issue the necessary pay
adjustment authorizations.
Our tests indicate that the disbursing officer
was not reviewing and verifying the accuracy of leave,
proceed and traveltime reported by the administrative
office. Such verifications are required by Navy
Travel Instructions, paragraph 4009-1, and Navy Pay
and Personnel Procedures Manual, paragraph 10382.](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.gao/gaobacvap0001&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
