2 Samuel 20:24

And Adoram [was] over the tribute
Or over those that collected and brought it, as the Targum; this was a new office, and which respected both the revenue he received from his own people, and the tribute brought him from the nations conquered by him:

and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud [was] recorder;
who was in this office before, and now continued and established in it, ( 2 Samuel 8:16 ) .

2 Samuel 20:24 In-Context

22 Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and threw it out to Jo'ab. So he blew the trumpet, and they dispersed from the city, every man to his home. And Jo'ab returned to Jerusalem to the king.
23 Now Jo'ab was in command of all the army of Israel; and Benai'ah the son of Jehoi'ada was in command of the Cher'ethites and the Pel'ethites;
24 and Ador'am was in charge of the forced labor; and Jehosh'aphat the son of Ahi'lud was the recorder;
25 and Sheva was secretary; and Zadok and Abi'athar were priests;
26 and Ira the Ja'irite was also David's priest.
