The issue in this grievance is whether the grievant should be held·accountable for a window credit shortage from an August 26, 1982, audit. After a review of this matter, we mutually agreed that an employee involved in the the Window Service Training Program shall be accountable for the amount of the credit. However, our files in this grievance indicate there are disputes over whether the window clerk training and the audit of the accountability were conducted in accordance with Management Instruction EL-730-80-11 (Window Service Training Program) and the F-1 (Financial Handbook for Post Office) respectively. These remaining disputes are factual questions suitable for regional determination. Accordingly, as we further agreed, this case is hereby remanded to Step 3 for further development and consideration, if necessary, by the parties.
