What is C-SMART?
C-SMART is the CFBs proprietary financial reporting software used by all candidates running for the five CFB covered offices. The latest version of C-SMART is a web-based application that campaigns use to record financial activity and submit disclosure statements to the CFB and New York State Board of Elections (BOE). It is available free of charge to all campaigns upon registration with the CFB. Previously, C-SMART was available as a desktop program that was installed on your campaigns computer. Now, C-SMART can be accessed online from any computer with an Internet connection and by logging into your C-Access account. The new C-SMART provides a number of advantages: Multiple users can simultaneously log-in to C-SMART, through their web browser. Automatic service upgrades eliminate the need for campaigns to manually download updates. New interface allows for more streamlined and user-friendly data entry. Disclosure statements to the CFB and BOE are generated separately A unique encryption key securely stores data on protected servers so that it is no longer necessary to independently backup your database. All campaigns registered for the 2013 election cycle must submit the January 2013 disclosure statement using the new C-SMART. If your campaign has not upgraded to the latest version, contact your Candidate Services Unit (CSU) Liaison today! What is C-Access? In addition to serving as your campaigns gateway to C-SMART, C-Access is the CFBs interactive website that provides secure online access to campaign information. Through C-Access, your campaign receives notices regarding compliance and public funds eligibility, including pre-election statement reviews and post-election audits. Your campaign can also track the status of each disclosure statement submission and monitor progress towards meeting the public funds threshold. Candidates and treasurers who supply their email addresses on their CFB registration automatically receive a username and password for C-Access. Additional accounts can be created for campaign managers, consultants, or liaisons upon request by the candidate or treasurer. In C-Access, under Help, select Request Additional Accounts or contact your CSU Liaison at 212-306-7100 or CSUmail@nyccfb.info.
