The SCORE Chapter Accounting Policies and Procedures Manual (CAPP) is an essential tool for effective chapter governance. As a federal grant recipient, SCORE must demonstrate a high commitment toward creating an environment that promotes responsible conduct by embracing standards of excellence, trustworthiness and lawfulness (Federal Uniform Guidance).  Chapters must:

• identify the financial roles of its leaders and committees for management, oversight and processing activities;
• establish internal controls to safeguard a chapter’s assets;
• properly report financial transactions to SCORE Headquarters for recording financials accurately;
• follow the accounting policies and procedures provided in this Chapter Accounting Policies and Procedures Manual (CAPP) as well as SCORE's Policies and Procedures section of the Support Center; and,
• comply with guidelines and restrictions provided by grantors, donors, the SBA grant contract, and with federal grant

All chapter volunteers and staff are expected to comply with the policies and procedures in this manual.
