Finance committee hears update on MUNIS payroll rollout and FY23 audit draft

At the May 28, 2024 Finance & Audit Committee meeting of the New London Board of Education, Chief Financial Officer Rob Funk told members the district's transition to the MUNIS payroll system is on track and staff are actively testing payrolls to identify issues before the system goes live.

Funk told the committee that the district expects to meet its payroll deadline but did not specify the date; staff are running test payrolls to surface potential challenges prior to launch. He also reported that the fiscal year 2023 audit has been completed and that he has received draft management recommendations. Because those recommendations remain in draft form, Funk said he could not share them with the committee at the time; he added that he has had interim conversations with the auditor about tightening processes between the District and the City.

The update was provided during committee member comments; there were no public comments recorded at the meeting. No formal action was recorded on the payroll rollout or the FY23 audit recommendations at this meeting.
