Recommendations

Prepare and document an annual Fee Rule validation (budget vs. cost analysis) and make adjustments as needed to the fee calculation process.

Document all steps performed in calculating the Fee Rule in the desk procedures (Fee Handbook) to enable a new preparer to re-perform or complete the calculation.

Develop quality control checklists to use during the preparation of the license fee calculation spreadsheets.

Ensure a supervisor reviews the completed checklists and documents the review and approval on the quality control checklists.
