Reminders
L50s — In order to provide compliance with IEEE Audit, each Working Group Sponsor Chair and Treasurer will be required to complete a Principle of Business Conduct/Conflict of Interest (POB/COI) form.

EZ L50s — For those groups operating on a cash basis, Form EZL50s (.xls) will simplify the process for Standards Working Groups meeting the following criteria:

  • All of the conditions listed below must be true to be able to use this form to prepare the Working Group’s Annual Financial Statements (Report L50s)
  • The IEEE Standards Working Group DID NOT HAVE ANY of the following financial activities for the year ending 31 December 2012:
    1. Employee Salaries
    2. Employee Salary Taxes
    3. Accounts Receivable or Accrued Expenses / Payables
    4. Fixed Assets and/or Depreciation
    5. Long Term Investments or IEEE Investments
    6. Cash Loans (Receipts / Disbursements)

If the Working Group has ANY of the items listed above, you MUST submit the more detailed L50s Report. The EZ L50s contains the new compliance requirements above.
