Ordering CSAM:

This publication is available to be viewed, printed, or downloaded from this website at no charge.

Viewing CSAM:

California School Accounting Manual (CSAM) - 2019 Complete (PDF; 4MB) PDF format for online viewing, searching, and printing of the complete manual. This file is formatted for printing double-sided. It contains the blank pages necessary between some sections to ensure that when the file is printed, all sections begin on the correct page. NOTE: The entire manual is quite large and may take longer than expected to load into a browser or to print.

The following is a 2019 CSAM spine label suitable for inserting into the clear pocket available on the spine of many three ring binders: 2019 CSAM Spine Label (PDF)

California School Accounting Manual ( CSAM) - 2019 Updates (PDF format for online viewing, searching, and printing of only the updated sections) [not available for CSAM 2019]. Because nearly every section in the 2019 edition was updated and the headers and footers in every section were modified, the customary "updates only" file is not provided.

Downloading CSAM:

Download instructions for the 2019 Complete PDF version: Use the link above, then use the "File/Save As" command to save CSAM to your desktop for viewing, searching, and printing.
