1 Overview About This Manual
1.1 Background
The Enhanced Financial Reporting System (eFRS) originated

For clarifications and
from the basic Financial Reporting System (FRS) used by
queries, you may contact
the Project on:
some accounting units in the Department of Education
(DepED). It was initiated by Mr. Harold Magadia, a
programmer in the Accounting Division of DepEd Central
Office, up until its latest version. The current version of eFRS is
Mobile: 3.2 or the eFRS V3.2. Hence, all eFRS term used in this
manual refers to eFRS V3.2.
09166598811
09395729716
Landline:
The principal developer of eFRS is Mr. Magadia himself together with the guidance and
(02)-6335397
supervision of the Accountants from DepED Central Office. Feedbacks from field offices
were
email:also incorporated in the system along with the recommendations and suggestions
pointed out by the consulting team. The main distinction of eFRS as compared to its
predecessors is that it is already Unified Account Code Structure (UACS) compliant. This
deped.gifmis@gmail.com
means that it can already cater the 54-digit UACS code, as mandated through COA-DBM-
DOF Joint Circular No. 2013-1, in recording financial transaction. In addition, the eFRS
adheres to relevant rules and regulations as mandated by the Commission on Audit (COA)
and the Department of Budget and Management (DBM), including strict compliance to
pertinent guidelines and issuances deemed necessary by these oversight agencies.
The main purpose of eFRS is to provide relative ease in recording transactional data needed
for accounting units as compared to the manual process or even with standard spreadsheets
especially when coding the 46-digit UACS code. It was also designed to produce appropriate
reports and export relevant financial data as needed. Generally, eFRS is designed to provide
support for Accounting personnel in the meantime while the Government Integrated
Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS) is still undergoing development. Until
such time when GIFMIS will be fully implemented in DepED, eFRS will play a vital role in
recording accounting entries and other financial data as well as generating reports and other
financial statements.
The primary purpose of this manual is to provide a reference document for end users of the
eFRS. It covers instructions, definitions, illustrations, step-by-step guide, descriptions, and
explanations related to the functions of the system.
1.2 eFRS User Manual
Who should use the manual?
This manual is primarily designed for DepEd personnel from accounting units in different
levels of the department tasked with maintaining Journal Entry Vouchers (JEV) and other
financial documents such as general journals, ledgers, etc. It is also designed for use by
accountants, bookkeepers, and other accounting staff for generating reports and extracting
financial data.
What is eFRS?
Page 12
eFRS stands for Enhanced Financial Reporting System. It is a system used by the DepED
for recording various financial data and consequently generating reports as required by
oversight agencies such as the COA and DBM.
Why do we need to use eFRS?
The current version of eFRS incorporates UACS as mandated by COA-DBM-DOF Joint

Circular No. 2013-1 set out at Appendix 1. With the 46 digit format of UACS, DepEd realized
the difficulty in properly coding each financial transaction to its appropriate UACS code.
Although this would be addressed with the advent of GIFMIS, which will come in late 2015,
there is still a gap of approximately 2 years from the implementation of UACS to that of
GIFMIS. As such, there is a need to have a system to support DepEd during this gap.
Hence, the adoption of the enhanced FRS.
What is the scope of eFRS?
The eFRS is designed to capture financial data as reflected in the JEVs including other
supporting documents such as checks, disbursement vouchers, official receipts, etc. It
basically record important details for check and cash disbursements, cash collections and
deposits, general journal, and liquidations. For reporting, it can produce trial balance and
financial statements.
What is covered in the manual?
The manual comes in two volumes. Volume I covers the following topics: system
requirements, installation, setup, data entry, search and editing of records, reports
generation, and exporting data. It also includes frequently asked questions (FAQs) and how-
tos related to eFRS operation. Volume II illustrates the data entry functions of the system. It
focuses on the transaction accounting processes.

2 Establish Beginning Balances
2.1 Overview of Beginning Balance
Balance Sheet accounts, comprising of Assets, Liabilities and Government Equity, are called
real accounts, which normally have balances that are brought forward to the succeeding
years. Cash MDS accounts (Regular, Special Account, and/or Trust) however have no
forwarding balances due to automatic lapsing of the Notice of Cash Allocation (NCA), an
authority granted to DepEds operating units to disburse and issue Modified Disbursements
System (MDS) checks, at specified time.
In setting up an opening balance for the balance sheet accounts, the eFRS provides menu
and input fields to enter the beginning balances.
2.2 Set Up Beginning Balance
Using the Post-Closing Trial Balance or Detailed Balance Sheet (BS), input the account
balances following the steps below:
1. Select the Fund Source Code from the drop-down list in the appropriate fields.
Please be reminded that data input is on a per Fund Source basis.
2. Indicate None (000000000000000) in the MFO/PAP Code.
3. Select the particular Object Codes from the drop-down list in the appropriate fields.
Ensure that all New Government Accounting System (NGAS) Object Codes have
been duly converted to the UACS.
4. Enter the amounts of the beginning balances corresponding to every Object Code at
statement date
5. Click OK to post the transactions.
6. Do the same steps for other Fund Source Codes, if any.
2.3 Cash in Bank accounts
Setting up of the beginning balances in the eFRS only accounts for the total or aggregate
amount. Now, in order to maximize the use of information, most importantly on Cash in Bank
Local Currency, the details as to individual bank accounts should also be established.
Such information is very significant in the preparation of the Bank Reconciliation Statement
(BRS).
To set up the opening balance for each of the Cash in Bank Local Currency bank account,
the following steps shall be observed:
1. Click the Bank Deposits transaction type.
2. Set the JEV Number.
3. Select the appropriate Fund Source Code from the drop-down list. Ensure that the
fund source here matches with the code chosen in the System Setup when
establishing the beginning balances.
4. Put 0 (zero) in the Deposit Slip Number and Date for all entries.
5. Select the appropriate bank account number and Object Code for the Cash in Bank
Local Currency account from the drop-down list for the debit items.
6. Put 0 (zero) in the bank account number field and select the Object Code for the
Cash in Bank Local Currency account from the drop-down list for the credit item.
7. Enter the corresponding amount for each of the beginning bank account balance in
the debit side, and the total or aggregate amount in the credit side.
Page 14
8. Check whether total debit and credit amounts are in balance. Then click Post
Transaction button.
The journal entry would appear as:

The same principle applies to Cash in Bank Local Currency, Saving Deposit and Cash in
Bank Foreign Currency, Savings Account, if any.

3 Bank Disbursement
3.1 Overview of Bank Disbursements
Bank Disbursement refers to the payment transactions involving DepEds bank accounts or
financial transactions resulting to credits in the bank account balances. This transaction type
includes the following, but not limited to:
Check Disbursements
Authority to Debit Account (ADA) or Notice of Transfer of Allocation (NTA)
Disbursements
Cancelled Checks and/or Stale Checks
Bank Charges
3.2 Check Disbursement
Check Disbursements are payments made to various creditors or payees through the use of
paper checks. The two types of checks being issued by DepEd are the MDS Check and
Commercial Checks. MDS Checks are issued by government agencies, such as DepEd,
chargeable against the account of the Bureau of Treasury (BTr) which is maintained in
various authorized government servicing banks (AGSB). These are covered by Notice of
Cash Allocation (NCA), an authorization issued by the DBM to government agencies to
withdraw cash from the National Treasury through the issuance of MDS checks. Commercial
Checks are issued by DepEd against its non-MDS bank accounts, such as Revolving Funds
and Trust Receipts.
The necessary reference documents to support the recording of check disbursement

transactions are the following:
Copy of check issued
Disbursement Voucher (DV)
Obligation Request (OBr)
Reference issued check may also be required for the Petty Cash Fund (PCF)
replenishments and other similar transactions.
To record the transaction in the eFRS, the following steps shall be observed:
1. Set the JEV Number by choosing the appropriate year and month of the transaction,
then the transaction date.
2. Click and select the transaction category, Bank Disbursements, from the dropdown
list. Make sure to click the same Bank Disbursements button for the correct form of
entry fields to appear.
Page 16
3. Click and select the sub-transaction type, Check Disbursements, and choose the
appropriate Fund Source Code from the dropdown lists.
4. Input all required data from the DV to the entry form. Remember, dont leave any field
blank!
5. Complete the accounting entries: click and select appropriate MFO/PAP and Object
Codes from the dropdown lists and enter into the corresponding debit and credit
amounts. Note that the MFO/PAP Codes must be specified for Expense account,
such as PS, MOOE, Financial Expenses (if any) and Capital Outlays codes.
Otherwise, choose fifteen zeroes or None as MFO/PAP Code.
6. Verify the debit and credit entries before clicking the Post Transaction button.
Descriptions for each entry level are reflected at the bottom of the display page.
Make sure that the balance checker shows zero amounts.
7. When necessary, print the JEV and file on top of the transaction documentation.

3.3 ADA Disbursement
Disbursements through the Authority to Debit Account (ADA) are settlements of liabilities
using the electronic fund transfer (EFT) authorized by the government agencies. ADA is
issued in lieu of paper checks. It may be issued by the DBM to settle liabilities listed in the
List of Due and Demandable Accounts Payable (LDDAP) submitted by DepEd. It may also
be issued by DepEd itself against its MDS bank accounts.
The necessary reference documents to support the recording of bank disbursement

To record the transaction in the eFRS, follow the steps observed in the check disbursements
above, except for the transaction sub-type. Click and select the sub-transaction type, ADA
Disbursements, and fill out the form using the data from the supporting documents and the
dropdown lists.
Other than the regular salaries paid through ATM Payroll System, ADA is usually issued to

Progress payments
In case of payment of salaries and other PS items though, primarily for DOs which maintains
the payroll for Teachers, the following extra steps must be observed:
A. The Organization Codes of Spending Units must be considered and reflected in

each JEV.
1. Prepare 1 JEV for each Spending Unit (only for Secondary Schools) with own

Receipted trust fund collections will fall under deposits of collections as illustrated above. For
trust receipts that will not course through a collection and credited directly to the required
bank account, depending on the trust agreement, the recording of transaction must base on
that signed trust agreement and bank advice.

There are instances that checks received by Collecting Officers in payment of taxes, fees
and other debts due to the government are dishonored by the drawee banks. A check is
said to be dishonored by non-payment when, upon its being duly presented for payment,
such payment is refused or cannot be obtained. (Sec. 83, RA No. 2031, Negotiable
Instrument Law). It may also be defined as those checks paid to the agency, which were
dishonored by the AGDB due to Drawn Against Insufficient Fund or Drawn Against
Uncleared Deposits.

7 Other Transactions
7.1 Overview of Other Transactions
Other Transactions refer to all types of financial transactions that cannot be categorized by
any of the identified types of transactions above. Non-cash transactions normally fall under
this category, such as but not limited to the following:
NCA and/or NTA Receipts and its Lapsing
Remittances to the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) through a Tax Remittance
Advice (TRA)
Non-cash expenses, including the Supplies and Materials issued and used,
Impairment Losses, Depreciation Expenses, and the like
Correction or adjusting entries
Mid-year or Year-end closing of nominal accounts
7.2 NCA/NTA Receipt
A MDS is a procedure whereby the disbursements by the government agencies, chargeable

against the account of the Treasurer of the Philippines, are effected through the AGSB. It is
evidenced by an authorization, the NCA, issued by the DBM to DepEds operating units, to
withdraw cash from the National Treasury through the issuance of MDS checks. This is the
cash authority granted to CO, ROs, DOs, and IUs through the AGSBs of the MDS. Currently,
the MDS is being serviced by the Lank Bank of the Philippines (LBP), Development Bank of
the Philippines (DBP) and Philippine Veterans Bank (PVB).
The amount indicated in the NCA is considered a bank deposit. Such will be recorded in the
books of accounts, to be supported by the Advice of Notice of Cash Allocation Issued
(ANCAI).

Notice of Transfer of Allocation (NTA) is a scheme whereby DepEd shall instruct their MDS-
AGSB to transfer a specific amount out of their NCA available book balance to the MDS
accounts of the LLOU within the same department, receiving NCA directly from the DBM.
The individual MDS-AGSB of the recipient NGA shall be the same MDS-AGSB as that used
by the transferring NGA.
In the case of the receiving NGA, the amount indicated in the NTA is considered a bank
deposit. Such will be recorded in the books of accounts, to be supported by approved copy

7.3 Remittances to BIR
For all NGAs, like DepEd, performing as a withholding agent, the remittance of taxes
withheld to the BIR is done regularly through issuance of Tax Remittance Advice (TRA).
TRA is the constructive payment document which agencies issue/file with the BIR to report
and record remittances of all taxes withheld from various transactions. This serves as basis
for BIR and BTr to record as income, the tax collection and deposit in their books of
accounts.
The following documents shall support the remittance:

7.4 Non-Cash Expenses
Impairment Losses
Page 50
The impairment of assets, such as Investments, Receivables, Inventories, Property, Plant
and Equipment, and Other Assets, seeks to ensure that these assets are not carried at more
than their recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in
use).
An impairment loss is a type of one-time or nonrecurring charge that is entered into the
accounting records as a means of correcting the value of an asset that has an overstated
book value. The idea is to reduce that book value down to what is considered a fair value,
allowing for whatever factors have caused the change in the worth of that asset. From this
perspective, impairment losses can be seen as accounting procedures that help to create a
more balanced and accurate assessment of the true and current value of any assets held by
DepEd.
The accounting treatment and support documentation for the recognition of impairment loss
shall be dependent on the COA guidelines, as this is newly introduced in the Revised Chart
of Accounts (COA Circular No. 2013-002).
To recording the transaction in the eFRS, follow the same steps as NCA Receipt, except for

Since Bad Debts Expense is replaced by Impairment Loss Loans and Receivables, the

Depreciation for Property, Plant and Equipment
The costs of property, plant and equipment are allocated to the periods benefited through
the provision of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is the systematic and gradual
allocation of the depreciable amount of asset over its useful life.
Other than the provision for impairment losses, the periodic allocation of cost for the wear
and tear of all Property, Plant and Equipment the Aging of Receivables will also be
recognized based on the Schedule of Depreciation. The illustrative accounting entries are as

9 Frequently Asked Questions
1. How to account for Prior Period Adjustments (PPA)?

As provided in the COA Circular No. 2013-002 on the Adoption of the Revised Chart
of Accounts for National Government Agencies, the account Government Equity is
described as the account to be used to record the cumulative results of normal and
continuous operations of the agency including prior period adjustments, effects of
changes in accounting policy and other capital adjustments. Suffice it to say that all
PPA outstanding balances and those current transactions with similar treatments will
be closed to the Government Equity account, unless otherwise specified by the COA.
2. We account downloading of MOOE to non-IUs (SUs) as an outright expense. Is this

acceptable?
Reporting the MOOE downloading as an outright expense, in the current account
name of Financial Assistance to NGAs, may be acceptable. The downside though is
that MOOE comes in different and several forms, e.g. Electricity expense, Water
expense, Telephone expense, Repairs and Maintenance expense, etc., which are
better recognized as individual expense items. Lumping them together in one subsidy
account will compromise the fairness and integrity of the financial information.
Downloading of MOOE to SUs would rather be treated as Advances for Operating
Units which is subject to liquidation.
3. Can we delete erroneous JEVs?

Erroneous JEV may be corrected through the Edit Data function. But basically, a JEV
once posted can no longer be deleted. Prepare a separate, new JEV instead
containing the reversing entry. Use the same data in the previous JEV, and input a
negative amount in the JEV details section.
4. Is MFO/PAP code needed to be indicated for every Object code (accounting entry
level?
MFO/PAP Codes originate from the approved budget of the Department. Therefore
the coding is important in monitoring budgetary items.
Approved budget contains expenditure items, i.e. PS, MOOE and CO. Therefore the
MFO/PAP Codes must be appropriately indicated in expense item only, including
PPEs. No such codes are provided for all other Assets, Liabilities, Incomes, Equity,
and Non-Cash Expenses (lets call them as ALIEN). Following the 5-segment, 46-
Page 61
digit UACS, None in the form of 9 zeroes (000000000) will be used to code ALIEN
accounts.
5. What about MFO/PAP code for non-budgetary items?

Given that MFO/PAP Codes are for budgetary items only and hence used for
General Fund transactions. All receipts and disbursements for Revolving Funds,
Trust Receipts such as Provident Funds, and other Off-Budgetary and Custodial
Funds are coded 000000000 or None MFO/PAP.
6. Is it necessary to complete the 5-segment, 46-digit UACS for each transaction?

Yes. The UACS is a multi-dimensional coding structure. Each digit in each segment
code captures all the required and/or relevant information for all PFM users. Each
provides a level of detail for every transaction, with hierarchies for grouping and
consolidating information. Each segment can be used for one purpose only, and
each purpose captured fully in that one segment. The FOLMO (Fund Source,
Organization, Location, MFO/PAP, and Object codes) therefore must always be
completely indicated in recording each financial transaction. Furthermore, complete
UACS enables data for multiple uses, for whatever reporting purpose, and in
whatever format or template.
