Dear Colonel NcClintocks

     cur survey of selected pay/personnel actions reported for input to
JUMPS/MS  by your command during the period March 1, 1974 through
February 28, 1975, has been completed.  For survey purposes we randomly
selected 44 members of your command and compared data recorded on leave
and earnings statements and in the Personnel Financial Records with data
and records In the Officer qualification Record and Service Record Book.
We also examined the procedures and controls employed by your staff to
provide reasonable assurance that all pay/personnel data is promptly and
accurately Input to JUMPS/MMS.

     The discrepancies noted during our survey that we identified as
originating with your command, and/or were within your authority to
correct, were discussed with your Personnel Officer who  assured us that
appropriate action would be taken.  Specifically, we founds

     *-two cases where leave balanse corrections had been
       reported to the Finance Center, but the corrections
       did pot process.  Prompt follow-up action was not
       taken by your staff when the corrections did not
       appear on subsequent leave and earnings statements.
       The potential effect is $2,149.12 and $374.68 due
       the Government from the individuals in question.

     --one case of erroneous leave computation reported
       on a unit diary.  An attempt to correct the matter
       with a second unit diary entry compounded the error.
       The Finance Center was advised by letter to correct
       the leave balance which was acknowledged.  However,
       an additional adjustment to the man's pay is neces-
       sary to collect an $11.40 overpayment for leave
       rations.  We discussed this case with the disbursing
       officer and a checkage was made.
