E. PROBLEMS & REQUIRMENTS Ref Identified Weakness/problem Too many sections & processes are 1 involved in receiving & authenticating the payment before issuing the bond. Voucher, registers move from one section to another. Many register records same data.
X-Ref
Suggested improvement/requirement A software system is underway in Shanchaya Patra section for managing Bond records, accounts holders record & transactions. These all will require to be entered again in the Accounting software of the branch. An integrated software system originating from SP Section can facilitate others in receiving the same data avoiding the duplication of data entry. On-going computerisation can focus on it & preparing report & voucher directly from the systems. Instrument can be dematted (dematerialised from paper to electronic), electronic instrument can be more efficient in using the same as collateral against loans. NSD can build a central depository system to have more control over it its management. A strategic policy can be developed in this regards. Unless a computerised system is built, management decision cant be made on facts, like NSD cannot differentiate the payment against maturity & early redemption until they receive the voucher & enters that. Cant even monitor day to day operation for target & achievement analysis. Even treasury position & inflow cant be matched in need to manipulate domestic debt.

Lack of Information
4.
In many instances accounting mismatches originate from wrong data entry, if BB incorporates the required functionalities in their on-going computerization & generates the same data for CGA, the rate of error is likely to be reduced, if change management in BB has got effect in data update methodically in CGA, then the differences can be omitted. An IT guideline is required here.
