Separation of Duties

Effective December 14, 2001, the same person could no longer both request and approve a given draw down in IDIS.

While individual persons may have the power to both request and approve draws, this rule prevents an individual from approving a draw that he or she created. IDIS requires two people to be involved in every draw down of funds.

Currently, the IDIS Local Administrator initially defines what a person can do in IDIS, carrying out the wishes of each grantee's authorizing official ? mayor, grant holder, CEO, CFO, etc. Some users have the power to request a draw down, others have the power to approve a draw down, and others have both. Some users have full rights, while others have limited rights of various kinds.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions about this policy.
