Report Description:
This interim report presents the results of our self-initiated
audit of the efficiency of selected processes at the Wylie
Post Office in Wylie, TX (Project Number 22-066). This audit
was designed to provide U.S. Postal Service management
with timely information on potential financial control risks
at Postal Service locations. The Wylie Post Office is in the
Texas 1 District of the Southern Area. We judgmentally
selected the Wylie Post Office for our audit.
Our objective was to review cash and stamp inventories,
daily reporting activities, clock ring errors, and employee
separations processing at the Wylie, TX Post Office.
To accomplish our objective, we reviewed data regarding
inventories, daily reporting activities, clock ring errors,
and employee separations to identify at risk transactions.1
We conducted physical counts of all cash, stamp, and
money order inventories, reviewed stamp transfers, and
evaluated selected internal controls. We also observed
daily closing procedures, traced selected transactions to
source documentation, and interviewed unit personnel. We
determined the cause of clock ring errors and the steps
taken to resolve them. We also reviewed compliance with
procedures for separated employees, including timely
suspending system access and collecting and protecting
accountable property. We discussed our observations and
conclusions with management on May 9, 2022, and included
their comments where appropriate.
