ENTRY NO. 12 – [CONTROLLER’S RECEIPT IS RECEIVED] - 10512-OCT-2015

(Revised: 10/2015)

This entry is made to clear the Cash in Transit to State Treasury account and to liquidate the uncleared collections account when the department receives the Controller's Receipt.

Information:

The Controller's Receipt is the certification copy of either the Controller's Remittance Advice Form CA 21 or the Report to State Controller of Remittance to State Account, Form CA 21A which orders the cash into the State Treasury. (This entry is recorded as of the date on the Controller's Receipt.)

Cash in Transit to State Treasury may be comprised of (1) amounts pertaining to the departments operating fund and/or (2) amounts representing salary overpayments being remitted to the State Payroll Revolving Fund.

Uncleared collections may be comprised of reimbursements and/or amounts representing salary overpayments being remitted to the State Payroll Revolving Fund.

Included in this entry is the application of reimbursements of the type that, according to law, must be credited to the appropriation current at the time moneys are ordered into the State Treasury.

When a Controller's Receipt is received by the department the corresponding remittance advice is removed from the uncleared file, compared with the receipt to note any differences, and then discarded. The Controller's Receipt is the only copy filed in the cleared file.
