6.10.1 Oracle Accounting System Failure<br />

The Government Employees Provident Fund (GEPF) uses<br />

Oracle accounting system to record its transactions. During<br />

<strong>the</strong> audit, we noted that, <strong>the</strong> accounting system was not in<br />

full operation <strong>and</strong> financial transactions for most <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

accounting period under audit were in Excel spreadsheets.<br />

The accounting system was acquired in year 2005/2006 <strong>and</strong><br />

commissioned in February, 2007. No post implementation<br />

evaluation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> system was performed to establish <strong>the</strong><br />

proper working <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> system. The objective <strong>of</strong> purchasing<br />

<strong>the</strong> system was to increase efficiency in processing<br />

financial transactions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fund <strong>and</strong> reduce unnecessary<br />

manual records.<br />

Due to non-functioning <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> accounting system, all<br />

information requested for audit purposes were generated<br />

from Excel spreadsheets.<br />

Excel spreadsheets are prone to errors, manipulation <strong>and</strong><br />

lack audit trail as <strong>the</strong>y do not have proper functionalities<br />

allowing tracking <strong>of</strong> adjustments through journal entries.
