eRecon Electronic Reconciliation

Now discussion on e recon
E recon was started in April 2011
 E reconciliation transfer of Rly transactions are made through erecon
 Server being hosted by W rly.
 Concurrent booking of expenditure
 Carrying books and movement of staff dispensed. Scanning vouchers and onward transmission to destination
 Minimal return by destination
 It replaced physical reconciliation meetings every three months. Saved man-hours, money and travel. It is done completely as physical reconciliation and all principles envisaged in A-I are duly followed.
 A lot of money on account of TA to staff could be saved due to online transfers and dispensation of TDTC  meetings.
 It provides a real time access
 Referee has taken place of the Presiding Officer.
 Transactions are taking thru out
 Is it working for inter and intra division ..for both
 Dispute resolving mechanism is inbuilt through referee who is changed every quarter.
 Booking to suspense i e MAR and Deposit is minimised
 Moreover a lot of paper is saved since it is being done through electronically.  As far as inter railways, any transaction between railways should be routed only through e-recon i.e., Central Books of each railway will transfer the JEs from division to foreign railways and vice versa

While transfer division(i.e., division to division  transactions)  transactions can be done IPAS also. In southern railway, most of the division accept TCs in e-recon but JEs are prepared in IPAS. Inspire of its implementation, earnings are not adjusted thru e recon and in a way it is not totally advantageous. Most of the difference and disputes stretched to  till the closure of financial year

It has some problems in diversion cases. Now it is resolved with CRIS sending two matrix of apportionment one on booked route and the other on carried route. Diversion debits are adjusted by CRIS.

There is one more matrix by RITES for earnings. Because of this variation earning railways like SECR is losing although it has no bearing on IR, still zonal railways performance is measured by earnings and expenditure. A remedy is to be identified and resolved at the earliest.

PS
However let us not answer  adversely and be diplomatic in your answer and suggest for system improvement.
