2.4 Inventory: Other consumablesThe item relating to the augmentation of the medical depot previously located under inventory has been deleted. An increase in the augmentation of a medical trading account is seen as a transfer payment and not a consumable under goods & services. In the future the item “Cape Medical Depot Augmentation”, segment number 5227888 under transfers to departmental agencies should be used.

DELETED ITEM BAS SEGMENT NUMBER

OTH CONS: CAPITAL AUGMENTATION 1314888

2.5 Maintenance, Repair & Running costs: Temporary accounts (Public Works)

In the first year of implementation the SCOA Technical Committee created temporary accounts for the National Department of Public Works to facilitate the interface of their Works Control System to BAS. In evaluating the data for 2004/05 it was clear that a number of departments utilised these items for recording expenditure transactions. Due to the fact that these were created for a very specific purpose, and are no longer required for the WCS interface they have been removed from the SCOA.

The procedure described below must be followed where a department (other than the National Department of Public Works) previously made use of these accounts:

Rates & taxes and municipal services: Amounts paid must be allocated to the municipality receiving the payment. A sub-item has been created for each municipality under segment number 5733888, ‘MUNICIPAL RATES AND TAXES’.

2.7 Operating leases including rentals: Other StructuresDue to the fact that departments do not lease/rent/hire infrastructure assets from other entities the SCOA Technical Committee felt that there was no need for these accounts in the SCOA. All the accounts under “LEASES:OTHER STRCT(INFRA ASSET)”, segment number 2516888, have therefore been deleted.

Similarly the accounts relating to the leasing of heritage and biological assets have also been deleted.

2.8 Operating leases including rentals: Other Machinery and EquipmentA new item has been created for the allocation of expenditure incurred with regards to leasing/renting/hiring of forklifts or other similar lifting equipment.

5. Transfers and Subsidies

5.1 Municipalities - Rates & TaxesDuring the 2004/2005 financial year the SCOA Technical Committee moved the Rates and Taxes accounts from the Goods and Services to the Transfers and Subsidies category. Rates and taxes paid to a municipality are seen as unrequited payments in that the department does not receive anything of equal value directly in return from the municipality. However, payment for municipal services (i.e. water, electricity, etc) must still be paid from the item Goods and Services, using the posting level items under segment number 3622888. A majority of the accounts were removed during the 2004/05 year however; the following accounts were removed from 1 April 2005:

5.4 Departmental Agencies and AccountsThe item relating to transfers to the UIF under departmental agencies has been removed as it was duplicated in the SCOA.

CLASSIFICATION CIRCULAR 1 OF 2005/06

5.6 Provincial Agencies and AccountsThe category transfers to Provincial Agencies and Funds (PAF) has moved to transfers to Departmental Agencies and Accounts (DAA). The SCOA Technical Committee discovered that provinces were interpreting the definition of transfers to PAF and transfers to DAA differently. The SCOA Technical Committee acknowledges that the difference is not very clear in the Reference Guide to the New Economic Reporting Format (Blue Book), and decided to clarify and correct the classification in the SCOA.

The current category DAA in the SCOA caters only for transfers from the National Departments to such entities and will now also include transfers from Provincial Departments to their public entities.

This change will be done during the current financial year, which means that some transactions have already been processed under the category transfers PAF and that the budget has been uploaded on BAS. The relevant provincial departments will therefore be required to pass journals to correct this on BAS as well as correct the budget numbers in the Adjustments Estimate process. Once this has been done the old items under PAF will be deactivated on BAS.

11.2 Shares held in public corporations and private enterprisesThe SCOA Technical Committee previously created separate items for shares held in each public entity. Due to the fact that the matching field could be used to distinguish between shares held in different entities there was no need to create an account for each entity. These accounts have subsequently been deleted.

Departments are requested to use the item ‘Shares’ (segment number 6028888) for all shares held in public entities using the matching field to distinguish between the different entities:

12. Liabilities12.1 Payables: Salary AccountsA new item has been created on request of BAS for a new interface to supply PERSAL with the travel and subsistence information per employee. The data received from the BAS system will be used as input for the IRP5’s. The travel and subsistence functionality has been enhanced to incorporate posting to an unallocated travel and subsistence account. When a claim is cancelled and the allocation is no longer valid a posting should be performed to this account. The item will have a credit balance until it is cleared with Journals.

The matching fields for the account are:

o Matching field one: PERSAL number, matching field code 19

o Matching field two: T&S Claim Number, matching field code 46
