Workflow

1. Map reporting scope

   • Confirm which forms are required based on charter type, asset size, and holding company status
   • Identify new or sunset schedules from the latest FFIEC or Federal Reserve reporting updates
   • Assign schedule-level owners (e.g., Treasury owns RC-B securities, Credit owns RC-C loans, Operations owns RC-O)

2. Extract and reconcile source data

   • Pull period-end trial balance and sub-ledger detail
   • Reconcile GL balances to prior-quarter Call Report totals; investigate and document variances exceeding materiality threshold
   • Populate loan, securities, and deposit segmentation schedules from core banking system extracts
   • Verify off-balance-sheet commitments and derivatives notionals tie to source systems

3. Populate schedules and run validation

   • Enter data into filing software (e.g., Axiom, Wolters Kluwer, Abrigo, or in-house XBRL tool)
   • Run FFIEC/Federal Reserve edit checks — resolve quality edits and document explanations for validity edits that will be submitted
   • Cross-check inter-schedule consistency: RC-B to RC-R risk-weight buckets, RC-C to RC-N past-due and nonaccrual, RC-K to summary totals

4. Internal review and sign-off

   • Circulate draft to schedule owners for attestation
   • CFO or Controller performs top-level analytical review: quarter-over-quarter trends, peer benchmarking, ratio reasonableness (leverage, liquidity coverage, net interest margin implied by filings)
   • Board or designated committee reviews and authorizes submission [VERIFY governance policy]

5. Submit and archive

   • Transmit via CDR (Central Data Repository) for Call Reports or FR Y-9C Online for holding company reports
   • Retain confirmation receipt, XBRL instance document, validation summary, and all supporting workpapers per record retention policy [VERIFY — minimum 5 years typical but institution policy may differ]
   • Log any post-submission amendments and their justification

6. Post-filing monitoring

   • Track regulatory feedback or follow-up inquiries from FFIEC, OCC, FDIC, or Federal Reserve
   • Note edit-check failures or data quality flags for process improvement in next cycle
   • Update mapping templates if chart of accounts or system changes occurred during the quarter

Output

• Filing package: Completed Call Report or FR Y-9C with all applicable schedules, ready for electronic submission
• Reconciliation workpapers: GL-to-schedule tie-outs with variance explanations
• Validation summary: Edit-check results with resolution notes for each quality and validity edit
• Trend analysis: Quarter-over-quarter comparison of key line items (total assets, total loans, total deposits, risk-weighted assets, tier 1 capital ratio)
• Sign-off log: Schedule-owner attestations and CFO/board approval documentation

Quality Checks

• All FFIEC or Federal Reserve edit checks pass or have documented explanations
• Schedule RC (balance sheet) balances to total assets; total liabilities plus equity ties out
• RC-R risk-weighted assets reconcile to underlying schedule detail (RC-B, RC-C, RC-L)
• Loan schedules (RC-C) reconcile to past-due/nonaccrual schedules (RC-N) and charge-off schedules (RI-B)
• Interest income and expense on Schedule RI are directionally consistent with average balance and rate data
• Filing is submitted before the regulatory deadline; if extension is needed, Form FFIEC 009a or equivalent request is filed timely [VERIFY extension procedures by regulator]
• All [VERIFY] items in source data and thresholds have been confirmed against current regulatory instructions before submission
