Dear Sir:

     We are pleased to report that our audit of travel, commercial
(other than cost-type contract payments) and temporary lodging allow-
ance vouchers paid by the accounting and finance officer  (AFO) at your
installation for the period February 1 through 28, 1973, disclosed
no errors.

     We also examined the travel vouchers of military members for
accuracy of computation of delay en route chargeable as leave and
for timeliness of input of leave information to the members' centra-
lized leave accounts.  This is in addition to the Interim Leave System
examination, the results of which were reported to you by our letter
of January 24, 1973.

     Of the 182 travel vouchers in our sample, five showed delay en
route.  Our examination of these five vouchers showed that all periods
of leave were transmitted with the correct number of days and that
the periods of leave were entered on the Daily Transaction Listings
on a tamely basis after payment was made for the travel.

     In our letter of January 24, 1973, we reported that the Air Force
Accounting and Finance Center's (AFAFCs) examination of 37 travel vou-
chers involving delay en route for the period October 1971 through
August 1972 disclosed 24 instances where the leave was not posted.  For
the period September 1972 through February 1973 its examination of 13
additional travel vouchers which involved delay en route disclosed
two periods of leave that were not posted and one period of leave
incorrectly computed.  Your letter of February 28, 1973, stated that
you became aware of the deficiencies in the JUMPS leave accounting
system in September 1972 and assigned a task force to address the pro-
blems and to take the necessary actions to improve quality and timeliness
in recording of leave data.  Since our current audit disclosed no
leave errors and only one error was reported by the AFAFC for February
1973, it appears that the actions taken by the task force have been
effective in improving the quality of leave reporting.
