Abstract:

The overall audit objective was to evaluate the adequacy of MOCAS controls over automated data input. Specifically, we determined whether MOCAS had automated input controls that were adequate to prevent, detect, and correct erroneous and duplicate data entered by personnel at the DFAS Columbus Center whether MOCAS identified erroneous data transferred from supporting systems and whether data rejected at initial input were properly managed, corrected, and reentered in a timely manner.
