The office of the State Auditor has existed since Wyoming’s territorial days, and has been a constitutional position since Wyoming’s statehood. One of the five elected officials for the state of Wyoming, the State Auditor serves as the chief comptroller and payroll officer. The Auditor protects public money by ensuring that it is properly accounted for in the most efficient and cost effective means at all times. Promoting transparency and financial accountability are the Auditor’s top priorities. For a history of Wyoming State Auditors please click, here.
The State Auditor’s Office is divided into four divisions:
The CAFR Division is responsible for producing the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the State of Wyoming, as well as, serving as the main contact for the annual audit. This division is also responsible for fixed asset reporting and overseeing the appropriation level budget information.
Fiscal Management oversees both WOLFS (Wyoming Online Financial System) and Payroll operations. This division processes all payments made by State agencies to businesses and individuals, including State employees, patient and inmate workers at the State’s institutions, legislators, judges and members of the Wyoming National Guard.
The Quality Assurance Division provides training to State employees on the State’s financial systems, i.e., WOLFS, HRM Payroll and infoAdvantage. Through pre-audit sample selection and transaction reviews, Quality Assurance monitors agencies’ compliance with accounting policies, procedures and internal controls.
The Technical Division is responsible for the system operations of statewide financial applications. The Technical Division works with all divisions of the Auditor’s Office to provide support based on the business requirements of the Office and State Agency users.
