General Ledger (GL) Verification Tool

The General Ledger (GL) Verification online tool streamlines the General Ledger Verification (GLV) process with the goal of ensuring overall reasonableness of department financials. The tool uses a risk and sampling approach rather than a full reconciliation.

System and Data Availability

Users receive an email notification when the data for the latest closed month become available. Data are posted to the GL Verification tool monthly, approximately four days after campus month-end close is complete. The GL verification process must be completed in a timely manner: within 30 days of the previous month-end close.

Access

The GL Verification online tool is available from MyAccess.

Only department Access Administrators may submit requests for access; contact your department Access Administrator to request access for new users, to change user roles, or to deactivate users from the GL Verification Tool.

There are two department roles in the GL Verification Tool:

  • The Verifier role is not limited to specific Dept IDs.
  • The Approver role is assigned at the level of the Dept ID tree chosen by department/Control Point financial leadership.
    • When requesting the Approver role, you must specify at least one Dept ID; typically this is the Level 2 or Level 3 Dept ID roll-up for which the Approver is responsible.
    • The department Access Administrator will be required to active the role for the specific Dept ID values.
