Allocating Expenses

To properly allocate expenses to the appropriate field office, the COR must do the following:

  1. Show on the supplier invoice a specific facility’s Federal Standard Requisitioning and Issue Procedures (FEDSTRIP) code that is specified in the Lease Trailer Services contract for each claim.
  2. Provide the correct facility finance number responsible for the charges.
  3. Show the charges attributable to the facility for which the trailer services contract is issued and charge the expense to the applicable General Ledger Account number 53137 (Damage to Highway Vans).
  4. Monitor all damage caused by facilities in the COR’s jurisdiction and request affected offices take necessary preventive and corrective actions to minimize future damage.
  5. Arrange a Journal Voucher entry to reassign the expense from one finance number to another if a facility different than the one charged should pay the repair cost.
