While at NUGM in Sept 1989, we heard frequent references to the fact that fund accounting did not work properly and that this would be fixed in 4.6. We are experiencing an alarmingly large discrepancy in our expenditures/cash balance figures in Notis compared to those in our Accounting department. I would appreciate hearing from other sites which have experienced this kind of discrepancy - is it in the thousands of dollars? tens of thousands? hundreds of thousands? How have you handled this to complete a fiscal year end? Please reply to me directly. Thank you. Doug Fenwick Sr. Systems Analyst York University Libraries DFENWICK@YORKVM2
