Bank transactions
edit- Processed and approved by 2 board members (4-eyes principle)
- Need to be audited by the kascommissie, before approval of the financial statements
- We do not have a bank card, nor credit card, to avoid abuse
- We never use cash:
- All payments are done via wire transfer, based on invoice or expense claim
- In the future we plan to use Payconiq for incoming payments
- (large) Invoices require a preceding order, and Board approval, depending on the amount
- Expenses require proactive approval, and PDF copies of tickets (JPEG images should be avoided)
- Transactions are certified by PDF (non-repudiation) account transaction statement, and CAMT.053 XML or Excel extracts for transparant reporting and auditing
