Finance Procedures
Manual Preparation  


 

In order for your Finance Procedures Manual to be effective, it is vital that you write it clearly and make it easily understood by all Finance employees in your organization, in particular, and by key non-financial personnel, in general.  Top Management and your Advisory Board (or Board of Directors) must be aware of what Finance is doing, as sound business practice – and, sometimes, the law – dictates. 

The primary objective is to provide an effective financial management system (FMS) for your organization – another way of stating this is “to provide effective internal controls and thereby ensure compliance” with the growing list of standards and regulations.  A Finance Manual may be considered evidence of a system of effective financial controls.

This "Manual Preparation" section provides an introduction and guidelines for you to produce your Company’s own Finance Manual.

Please read the entire “Manual Preparation” section before you begin editing your manual.
