Quarterly MEDMS Financial actual uploads must be submitted the day after the end of the quarter (for example, Quarter 1 ends on September 30 therefore, Quarter 1 actual uploads are due October 1).  The files required will be actual balance sheet, actual revenue and actual expenditure for all funds, to include all ARRA Stimulus funds.  These MEDMS Financial files will be used to determine if a school unit has a high cash balance for State Fiscal Stabilization Funds.  The EFU 415 quarterly cash management report will be used to determine cash balances for all other ARRA Stimulus funds.  The quarterly cash management report must be current, accurate, and a copy with an original signature must be on file with Karen Knyff-Crockett in order for this report to be utilized to evaluate a high cash position for the Federal funds.
