In large departments having varied accounting functions, Accountants may maintain financial records for a department division. They prepare and review vouchers, warrants, purchase orders, requisitions, and similar financial documents. Positions in this class are distinguished from the next lower class of Accountant Auditor in that the latter is an entry level, trainee position.
