          An audit of the Stationery Revolving Fund of the House
of Representatives for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1976,
indicated that there is a need for more effective inventory
controls and improved purchase controls. Findings/-onclusions:
The Office Supply Service did not reconcile its cash account
with the House F'.nance Office control account during fiscal year
1976, but it die adopt a procedure in September 1976 for monthly
reconciliations of the Revolving Fund cash account with the
control account. Recommendations: The Office Supply Service
stock clerks should properly document all merchandise exchanged
with the Senate Stationery Store or with vendors, and such
exchanges should require the prior approval of the Chief of the
Office Supply Service. The stock clerks should also keep
separate inventory cards for items stored in the Rayburn,
Cannon, and Longworth storerooms and use transfer slips to
document merchandise transfers. Procedures should be adopted for
recording all high-volume icems on inventory cards and recording
receipt and issuance of these items as for other stockroom
merchandise. The Chief of the Office Supply Service should
designate one employee to establish a filing system for
controlling credit requests. This employee should review the
file at the end of each month and send a followup letter for all
requests outstanding for 3G days, asking for either credit or a
check for the amount of the credit. Be should notify the vendor
on all requests outstanding for 60 days that the requested
credit will be applicd to the vendor's next invoice. (SC)
