Frontier Monthly Certifications

Teller and Vault Cash Monthly Certifications

Overview

Within the first 10 business days of the month, Financial Accounting sends an excel spreadsheet listing all teller and vault balances for the end of the preceding month. SupportU is responsible for certifying teller and vault cash each month in the Frontier program. Any balance outages between the General Ledger and Xperience are reviewed. 

Financial Accounting scans all documents into the Frontier program that support the outage. These supporting document are viewed and researched to confirm the outage reason.

Note: Frontier works best when opened within the Microsoft Edge browser.

To verify an outage, review the following:

  • The teller drawer - view how the transaction was run
  • Evision - view how FIS processed the transaction and/or confirm that an unposted item did clear
  • Client's account - confirm that the client's account was debited or credited properly.

Record all comments and information used to substantiate that you agree or disagree with an outage and save the monthly spreadsheet to: Operations//Retail Support Group/Frontier Certifications/Year

Highlight your comments and the balance in the same color on the Financial Accounting spreadsheet.
