Are districts and AEAs able to view their CAR-COA data after submission?

Yes. The district or AEA is able to view its own data after submission and to create standard and custom reports from those data to be sure the file transmitted as expected. If the district or AEA determines that errors occurred in the transmitted data, the district or AEA can submit its data again. The data can be submitted as many times as necessary prior to certification. Errors found after certification are almost always corrected in the following year's CAR-COA as upward or downward adjustments to fund balance (a revenue or an expenditure account by that name rather than general journal entries to the actual fund balance accounts). Contact the Department if the error is substantial or if the error has caused the district to incur a negative unspent balance.
