Duties & Responsibilities Prepare and complete several of UAFR's system-wide bank reconciliations. This includes investigating any bank reconciling errors, reviewing appropriateness of transactions by both the banks and the university, communicating effectively with the appropriate parties regarding bank reconciliation items, and ensuring the proper correcting entries are made in Banner when applicable. This is an important task critical to the operations of the University of Illinois System.
Document procedural information outlining the accounting theory and procedural steps necessary to complete various system-wide bank reconciliations and other essential operational accounting tasks.
