IMPORTANT REMINDERS Even if you are a seasoned user, please review the following are important reminders.

Navigation Buttons The regular Windows command area at the top of the screen does not apply within the Budget Process Module. DO NOT use your browser’s Back/ Forward arrow or the Home commands to move within the budget screens (see red boxes below). Using these buttons could cause adverse and/or unexpected results, including interfering with the application’s ability to properly update an account’s status. For most screens, click on the Home link within the Budget screen area to return to the login screen (see green circles below). Since any unsaved changes will be lost after you click on the Home button, use this button only when necessary and only after saving your work.

Saving Your Work It is important when performing data entry to Tab out of the field you have just updated before clicking on the Save button, any other buttons, or elsewhere on the page. In the design of Oracle R12, tabbing out of the field prompts the database to perform data validation, which is required before performing another task, such as saving. If a user clicks on the Save button before tabbing out of a field, the system will ignore the instruction to save.

Assigning Department-Level Users RC-level users should not also be established as department-level users. Doing so will prevent buttons from appearing that are needed as an RC-level user.

WHAT’S NEW OR NOTABLE IN FY 2019?

Cost Recovery Subcodes In FY 2018, the Controller’s Office began transitioning the subcodes used for the credit side of cost recovery transactions from the 84xx series of subcodes to the xx98 series of subcodes. Programming in the PRISM Budget Module has not yet caught up to this change. If your RC has been instructed by the Controller’s Office to begin using the xx98 series of subcodes for cost recovery that you budget in entity 02, submit your budget using the 84xx series of subcodes instead, so that it will flow to your Recon screen properly, notify Budget & Financial Reporting (B&FR) with your submission, and B&FR will process a BMR in SEP-18, so that your September level reports and reports from PBCS will reflect your budget in the correct subcode.

Union Salary Increases For FY 2019, union bases are not backed out on Schedule 4, so they were allocated the general salary pool increase in your target budget. The analysis of union bases and increases from collective bargaining agreements will be sent to you in October, and BMRs will be processed at that time to adjust your budget.

Valid Reference Codes Note that the reference code table that starts on page 79 was updated in fiscal year 2018. If you are using reference codes in your budget submission, please consult this resource to ensure you are using valid values.

Disabled Subcodes In FY 2017, subcodes 5710 (Chief Medical Residents) and 5715 (Graduate Medical Trainees) were disabled.

TARGET BUDGET EXHIBITS AND SCHEDULES The FY 2019 budget guidelines represent the compilation of budgetary decisions for FY 2019 as they affect each RC. The budget guidelines contain five components: Exhibit A - Calculation of Approved Operating Expenditure Budget for FY 2019 Exhibit B - Calculation of Approved Operating Revenue Budget Exhibit C - FY 2019 Overhead Rates Exhibit D - FY 2019 Debt Service Budgets Exhibit E - FY 2019 Financial Aid Budgets

Exhibit A and Schedules 1 - 5 An RC’s operating expenditure budget is generally that portion of its budget that is accounted for in Entity 02 (subcode range 5000 through 9999) and is funded from general University sources of revenue (commonly referred to as "hard money"). Expenditures related to non-auxiliary activities and to auxiliary enterprises are not included in the RC’s operating expenditure budget as presented in Exhibit A. Financial aid accounts (purposes 07###) are also excluded from Exhibit A because they are allocated on Exhibit E. The starting point for the calculation of the approved operating expenditure budget for FY 2019 is the approved operating expenditure budget for FY 2018 (as of July 1, 2017) as submitted by the RC in September 20167 This budget, and all information related to the budget calculation, is provided by the following categories: • faculty salary (excluding fringe benefits) • non-faculty salary (excluding fringe benefits) • fringe benefits calculated on faculty and non-faculty salaries • GSA/TA/TF/GSR salary (excluding fringe benefits) • fringe benefits calculated on GSA/TA/TF/GSR salaries • other costs (excluding cost recovery) • cost recovery Student salaries recorded in subcodes 5700 through 5785 are included in non-faculty salaries. Schedule 1 of Exhibit A details changes that have occurred in fiscal year 2018 to an RC’s budgets from the transfer of departments, or from permanent Budget Modification Requests (BMRs). In cases where a permanent BMR created partial year funding, additional amounts to provide funding for a full year are given as annualization of permanent BMRs. Details of annualizations are also presented in Schedule 1 of Exhibit A. Details of fully and partially cost recovered accounts and certain income-based accounts are found in Schedule 2 of Exhibit A. Fully cost recovered accounts, the recovered portion of partially cost recovered accounts, and certain income-based accounts are removed from the RC’s budget prior to calculating increases or other adjustments. As in previous years, increased costs in these accounts for fiscal year 2019 will not be centrally funded; these increases should be funded through increased income and/or cost recovery.

Page 7: FY 2019 Budget Instruction Manual Table of Contents · Welcome to the FY 2019 Budget Submission process. This instruction manual contains the following sections (you may navigate

Schedule 3 of Exhibit A provides for required reductions or reallocations of the budget. Schedule 4 of Exhibit A provides a calculation of the compensation increase and fringe benefit adjustment. The following items should be noted: • The details to the increase of the adjusted salary budget for staff, faculty, GSAs, GSRs, TAs, and TFs

(total percentage increase pool and percentage increases for satisfactory performance and merit, market, and equity) are outlined in the cover letter that accompanies your budget materials.

• Union increases are based on collective bargaining agreements. [For FY 2019, union bases will not

be backed out on Schedule 4, so they will receive the general salary pool increase in your target budget. The analysis of union bases and increases based on collective bargaining agreements will be sent to you in October, and BMRs will be processed to adjust your budget.]

• Fringe benefits have been included in the target budget at the approved FY 2019 rates. Fringe

benefits will be budgeted on salaries using various rates depending upon employee classification. The same rates should be used whether the budgets are for regular salaries or overload salaries. A table detailing the FY 2019 approved rates can be found in the Other Resources section of this manual.

• Funding has been adjusted on Schedule 4 to reflect the changes in fringe benefit rates from the FY

2018 rates. Therefore, any movement of salary dollars requires a movement of fringes at the applicable FY 2019 rate(s). Additional fringes will not be centrally funded for movement between salary subcodes.

Schedule 5 of Exhibit A details any program changes that affect the RC that have been approved through the budget process. No increase has been provided for other costs for FY 2019. The result of the above calculations is the approved operating expenditure budget for FY 2019 for the RC, excluding fully and partially cost recovered accounts and certain income-based accounts. To arrive at the total approved operating expenditure budget for FY 2019, fully and partially cost recovered accounts and certain income-based accounts are added back at the FY 2018 budgeted amounts, plus any permanent BMRs processed during the year to such accounts. The approved operating expenditure budget for FY 2019 is calculated at the RC level. When the RC head receives the FY 2019 target budget guidelines, he/she must distribute the approved funding to the departments within the RC. Operating expenditure budget data for each department will be collected on the data entry screens of the PRISM Budget Process Module. See the Navigating the Budget Process Module section of this manual.

Page 8: FY 2019 Budget Instruction Manual Table of Contents · Welcome to the FY 2019 Budget Submission process. This instruction manual contains the following sections (you may navigate

Exhibit B The approved operating expenditure budget for an RC assumes that a consistent level of operating revenues associated with that RC will be achieved. These operating revenues, accounted for in Entity 02 (subcode range 4000 through 4999) of the PRISM general ledger accounts, are detailed in Exhibit B. Permanent BMRs have been incorporated in the amounts on Exhibit B. The operating revenue budget represents the amount of revenue that must be achieved in FY 2018 to support the budgeted expenditures. If an RC budgets more revenue than this amount, the RC can increase its expenditure budget by the incremental amount. Likewise, if the RC budgets less revenue than this amount, the RC must decrease its expenditure budget by a corresponding amount. Operating revenue budget data will be collected on the revenue portion of the data entry screens.

Exhibit C Some RCs have auxiliary operations and / or non-auxiliary activities, which are accounted for in Entity 03 of the PRISM general ledger accounts. Exhibit C lists the required overhead rate to be applied to auxiliary/ non-auxiliary accounts when calculating total expenditure budgets. The expenditure budgets must include the appropriate amount of overhead in subcode 8302 Distributed University Overhead. As expenditure budgets are entered and saved, the system will automatically calculate overhead by applying the rate found on Exhibit C to Modified Total Direct costs (MTDC), and enter that amount in subcode 8302. A listing of the subcodes excluded from MTDC to determine overhead can be found in the Other Resources section of this manual. To manually calculate overhead for an account, start with total expenses (before overhead) and subtract subcodes excluded from MTDC. Multiply this net result by the applicable overhead rate from Exhibit C. This is the amount of overhead that should be budgeted in subcode 8302.

Exhibit D For RCs required to include debt service in their budgets, the appropriate entity, department, and amounts are provided in Exhibit D. You may not enter a budget in subcode 8210 unless it is included on Exhibit D.

Exhibit E Exhibit E provides Undergraduate and Graduate Financial Aid budgets by RC. These budgets have been allocated to the RCs by the Office of the Provost or by the Office of the Senior Vice Chancellor for the Health Sciences, as applicable. Based on this exhibit, each RC should determine the allocation of its financial aid budget by account and complete the separate financial aid data entry tab on the Entity 02 screen. Please note that these budgets may not be reclassified between Undergraduate and Graduate. These financial aid budgets are not part of the Approved Operating Expenditure Budget on Exhibit A. This is a separate targeted amount. Therefore, RCs should not incorporate the budget of these accounts in their Reconciliation. Final Approvers should, however, ensure the financial aid budget to be submitted equals (or reconciles) to the target budget shown on Exhibit E, which also appears at the bottom of the Department Selection screen.

Note on Printing Target Budget Exhibits Your target budget exhibits may be printed directly to your printer, and all pages should print in the format appearing on your screen. One reason the print copy may appear differently is because your printer setting is not set to the proper scaling. Another reason may be that the auto-rotate/orientation setting needs to be changed. If you are having difficulty, check to insure that “Shrink to Printable Area” or ”Shrink oversized pages” and “Auto-Rotate” or ”Auto portrait/landscape” are selected.

Basic Navigation

1. The regular Windows command area at the top of the screen does not apply within the Budget Process Module. DO NOT use your browser’s Back/ Forward arrow or the Home commands to move within the budget screens (see red boxes below). Using these buttons could cause adverse and/or unexpected results, including interfering with the application’s ability to properly update an account’s status. For most screens, click on the Home link within the Budget screen area to return to the login screen (see green circle below). Since any unsaved changes will be lost after you click on the Home button, use this button only when necessary and only after saving your work.

2. Note that an individual user’s screen size and resolution may cause the screens to appear a little differently than pictured in this instruction manual. Take notice of whether scroll bars appear (see yellow and orange arrows above); if they do, that indicates that there is more to see than is shown. If a scroll bar appears where indicated by the orange arrow, it may be easier for you to navigate the module if you have your screen magnification set to 100%:

3. To navigate to another PRISM responsibility (for example, to research something in General Ledger), save your work and select Navigate at the top of the screen (see green arrow in screen shot on previous page under item 1).

4. To log out of the Budget Process Module, select the Logout link (see purple arrow in screen shot

on previous page under item 1). This will log you out of PRISM completely. If you only want to change PRISM responsibilities, use the Navigate menu (see green arrow in screen shot on previous page under item 1).

5. The Status column on the right side of the screen indicates one of six levels of completion. The various status levels are discussed in more detail on the Data Entry Screens section of this manual.

6. Various buttons will appear at the bottom of the screen which allow specific tasks within the

Budget Module, such as moving to other screens, saving your work, and updating the status of your work. Which buttons appear or work on an individual user’s screen is dependent upon the user’s level of access and the status level of the department. The buttons are explained in more detail in a later section of this manual (see What do the Buttons Mean?).

7. In most instances, you will use the Tab key on your keyboard or your mouse to navigate through the fields on the screen. It is important when performing data entry to Tab out of the field you have just updated before clicking on the Save button, any other buttons, or elsewhere on the page. In the design of Oracle R12, tabbing out of the field prompts the database to perform data validation, which is required before performing another task, such as saving. If a user clicks on the Save button before tabbing out of a field, the system will ignore the instruction to save.

8. When editing a field that already contains a number, delete the entire contents of the field and enter the revised number. Attempting to edit only a character or two in a field can yield unreliable results.

RC-Level Security The first level of security that needs to be established is at the RC level. Any users established at this level will have access to all departments under an RC. For the FY 2019 budget submission process, RCs were asked in July to confirm the security designations at this level and submit Data Access Form(s) for any changes.

There are three roles that can be assigned at the RC level: • Final Approver

o Each RC MUST designate one, and only one, Final Approver o The Final Approver CANNOT be given view-only rights o May enter/edit data o May assign department-level access rights to other users o Can mark departments as “Entered” and “Approved”, and can reverse approvals and re-

open departments for data entry (as long as the RC’s budget has not yet been submitted to Budget & Financial Reporting (B&FR))

o Is responsible for reconciling the RC’s submitted budget to its target budget and completing other submission forms (as necessary), or reviewing the reconciliation and other submission forms completed by another RC-Level User

o Is responsible for submitting the RC’s budget to B&FR • RC Budget User

o May do everything a Final Approver can, except: Reverse approvals of departments Submit the RC’s budget to B&FR

• RC View Only

o Has view-only rights to all departments under the RC RC-level users should not also be established as department-level users. An RC-level user has all of the access privileges as a department-level user (as long as the user is not restricted to “View Only” rights), so there is no need to set up an RC-level user as a department level user. Doing so will prevent buttons from appearing that are needed as an RC-level user.

Note that RCs that report to the Provost have Kristin Gusten and Shari Manges established as an RC Budget User with View Only rights to their RCs. RCs that report to the Senior Vice Chancellor, Health Sciences have Rich Henderson established as an RC Budget User with View Only rights to their RCs. Because Kristin, Shari, and Rich will have the ability to view their respective RCs’ submitted budgets and required forms, RCs do not need to forward their submission forms to them. However, any supplemental communication to B&FR should include a cc to Kristin and Shari or Rich.

Department-Level Security An RC Final Approver or RC Budget User is able to assign data-entry capabilities to individuals at the department level. We refer to these users as Department Users. Department Users can be assigned data-entry or view-only rights to specific (or all) departments under an RC. The assignment of these rights is performed using the Department Security button.

Note that:

• Data Access forms are not required for department users • The instructions that follow include printing a record of Department User assignments that can

be kept for reference. • RC-level users should not also be established as department-level users. An RC-level user has all

of the access privileges as a department-level user (as long as the user is not restricted to “View Only” rights), so there is no need to set up an RC-level user as a department level user. Doing so will prevent buttons from appearing that are needed as an RC-level user.

Adding a Single User to a Single Department From the RC Selection screen, click on the Department Security button.

The next screen you will see will look very similar to the RC Selection screen, except that it will be titled the Department Security – RC List screen. Select your RC, which will bring you to a screen that looks like the following:

This screen lists all departments within the chosen RC, the names of the people who have already been assigned access privileges (none, if you are assigning rights for the first time, as in the example above), and if privileges are view-only (a (V) following the user’s name). Assignments of Department Users that were established for the 2018 budget submission process have been carried over to the FY 2019 process.

Select a department by left-clicking on the link in blue. The system will bring up a screen indicating the security assignments that have been made for that department, or a message that no users have been defined for this department (see screen shot below).

To add a person, select the Add button, enter at least a portion of the last name of the person to be added in the Person box, and hit Tab or click on the magnifying glass icon. (Note that the Person box is not case-sensitive.). The system will bring up a dialog box with the names meeting the selection criteria from individuals in the current HR system.

Note: When assigning access to a user, either select Yes, No, or View Only for all account types, or be careful to match the level of access you are granting to the proper account type for the department. In the example above, department 11010 is an operating account with 07xxx purpose code financial aid accounts. If you have No selected under the OP and FA account types, and Yes selected for AUX and NON AUX account types, Kelly will not have data-entry rights to the OP or FA account. The data entry screen will appear as follows, and Kelly will not be able to perform any data entry:

Data Entry Screens Once the security levels have been defined for an individual, the following screens will appear upon logging into the application. The number of RCs, departments, and account types that will appear depends on the security settings for the individual user.

RC Selection

This screen lists the RC number, RC description, the number of departments within the RC, and the RC status. Only RCs to which a user has been granted access will appear for that user. Users that have access to multiple RC’s are able to download data for all of those RC’s at one time and into one file by using the Export to XLS: ALL RCs button. Note that it may take the system several minutes to complete the export. Be patient. See below for an explanation of the various status levels.

NOTE: The status on the RC Selection screen is dependent upon the lowest status of any account within any department within the RC aside from the default, “Not Processed”.

Click on the RC link (blue text) to select an RC.

Status Levels • Not Processed – The department has not had activity, or data has not yet been entered into the

form. A department can move directly from Not Processed to Approved. In other words, if the RC’s Final Approver does not want to load a budget for this department, nothing further needs to be done.

• In Progress – Data has been entered and saved into the form. If a department’s status has been changed to In Progress, it must be marked Entered and Approved before the RC’s budget can be submitted to B&FR.

• Entered – Data entry for this department is complete (form is locked from the data entry user) and the data is ready for review by the RC Budget User or Final Approver. The RC Budget User and Final Approver have the ability to unlock the data for edit by a department user, or make their own edits without re-opening the department.

• Approved – The department has been reviewed and approved by an RC-Level User, and is ready for submission. The form is locked for all RC and department data users, however the Final Approver can reverse the approval for edits or data entry.

• Submitted - All departments within the RC have been reviewed, approved, and submitted to B&FR by the Final Approver. The data is now locked from the Final Approver and all other RC or department users. All departments must be in either Not Processed or Approved status in order for the RC to submit its budget. Only B&FR can re-open the RC for edits.

• Transferred – B&FR has reviewed the submission, any issues have been resolved, and the budget has been imported and loaded into PRISM.

A note on status levels at the RC level: If all of an RC’s departments are either Not Processed or Entered, the RC’s status will show as Entered. If one department’s status is then changed to Approved, the RC’s status will go back to In Progress (a “lower” status than Entered). The RC’s status will remain In Progress until all departments are approved, at which time the RC’s status will be changed to Approved.

Department Selection

The above screen indicates the department numbers and descriptions, the totals of the entries of accounts by account type, and department status. Again, only departments to which a user has been granted access will appear on his or her screen.

For an RC-Level User, the bottom of the screen will display the data entry totals for the entire RC (A), the target budget(s) for the RC (B), and the difference between the budgets input and the target budget (A-B). For a Department User, only the RC Total by User will be displayed since the target numbers and the difference have no relevance at the individual department user level.

Department status is dependent upon the lowest level of individual account statuses aside from the default, Not Processed. (Note that only Entity 02 departments with financial aid accounts (purpose 07xxx) can have more than one account per department number.)

Click on the department link (blue text) to select a department and go to the budget entry screen. Only accounts with budget or actual activity in FY 2018 will be available for a user to enter a budget through the Budget Process Module. New accounts cannot be added. If on the department selection screen, a department that is blank across the account type columns indicates that the account is valid in PRISM but it did not have financial activity (either budget or actual) during the prior fiscal year. This means you may not budget in it through the Budget Process Module. If you would select that department, the budget entry screen would appear as follows:

Note that the “breadcrumbs” the message above refers to are circled in red. If you want to establish a budget in such an instance, you may process a BMR after the budget is loaded into the General Ledger.

Budget Entry Screen

This screen indicates the RC number, department number and description (red arrow), department status (blue arrow), account type tabs (yellow arrow), and budget and actual amounts for the prior fiscal year (as of early-July close of June activity) at the subcode and reference segment level. To navigate back to the department selection or RC selection screens, use the “breadcrumbs” at the top of the screen (orange arrow).

Note that the buttons that will appear on an individual user’s screen (green arrow) will depend on the user’s access rights (see section below, What Do the Buttons Mean?).

The prior year budget amounts have been broken down into: 1. the initial loaded budget 2. permanent BMRs 3. temporary BMRs

4. ending total budget (sum of 1+2+3, shown on the level reports) 5. ending permanent budget (sum of 1 and 2 only)

At the bottom of the screen, the system summarizes entered and saved data for each column into the following categories:

• Total compensation, excluding external cost recovery (5880) • Total other costs, excluding cost recovery (84xx’s; see page 5) • Total cost recovery (84xx’s, 5880; see page 5) • Total expenses • Net revenues and expenses

Exporting the Budget Entry Screen to Excel A useful feature of the Budget Process Module is the ability for a user to export data from certain screens for analysis purposes. A user can do this first, creating a worksheet that can be used to analyze prior year budget and actuals to determine an appropriate budget for the next fiscal year (see Tip below). A user can also use the export function after the budget figures have been entered in order to check his or her work, or to have a copy of the budget for reference purposes.

Tip: if you choose to perform your analysis while working in the budget application, and if you want to investigate something in PRISM, you will have to log out of your budget user responsibility in PRISM, log back in under your general ledger (GL) responsibility, log back out under GL, and then log back in under budget. Exporting data to Excel will minimize going back and forth between PRISM responsibilities.

At the budget entry screen, the Export to XLS button opens a web version of Excel containing the records on the displayed screen, but without subtotaling and formulas. At the initial dialog box, you can choose

to either open the spreadsheet or save it to a network drive. Note that the web version of Excel does not have the full functionality of the PC version of Excel. You can view the records and print but if you require other functionality, you need to save the file to a network drive and then open it with your PC version of Excel.

Select Save and save to a network drive. You may also receive the following message; just click Yes.

Although the screen for budget entries shows sub-totals and summaries, neither subtotals nor the summary numbers are exported to Excel:

The above example is simple, but for departments that have much more data, Excel’s PivotTable, filter, and table functions can assist the user in quickly and efficiently summarizing or drilling down into the data at any level of detail the user wants. If you are not familiar with these functions, use Help in Excel to learn more about tables and filters. Instructional videos on Excel PivotTables are available through CSSD’s on-line technology training via Lynda.com:

• Log in to my.pitt.edu, • Click on My Resources, • Select Tech Training from CSSD, • Select Access the Lynda askCathy Task link, • Select the blue Start button in the upper right corner of your screen, • Either Ctrl+click on hyperlinks below, or search on lynda.com for the course that is appropriate

Navigating Data Entry Fields, Entering Budget Figures and Comments, and Saving Back at the data entry screen:

The white boxes are the fields available for data entry. Note that fringe benefits and overhead (as applicable) will calculate automatically and populate the appropriate subcode at each save. These fields are protected from data entry (red arrow).

In most instances, you will use the Tab key on your keyboard or your mouse to navigate through the fields on the screen. It is important when performing data entry to Tab out of the field you have just updated before clicking on the Save button, any other buttons, or elsewhere on the page. In the design of Oracle R12, tabbing out of the field prompts the database to perform data validation, which is required before performing another task, such as saving. If a user clicks on the Save button before tabbing out of a field, the system will ignore the instruction to save.

When editing a field that already contains a number, delete the entire contents of the field and enter the revised number. Attempting to edit only a character or two in a field can yield unreliable results.

Budget entries are made in whole dollar amounts (no cents, commas or formulas). If you enter a non-numeric character, the system will issue an error message. The system will format the numbers with commas when you tab out of the field.

Revenue entries are normally credit balances (negative numbers). If you enter a debit balance (positive number), the system gives you a warning, but does not prevent you from making the debit entry:

33

The Comments field allows you to note relevant information about your budget entry. Comments can be up to 30 characters. They will not appear in the General Ledger, but are included in any exports to Excel.

To save your work, click the Save button at the bottom left of the screen (see red circle on the full screen shot on the previous page). Note that this action will update the subtotal, fringe benefit, and overhead calculations, and “repaint” the screen (necessary because the save action is updating the database underlying the interface you see), bringing you back to the top of the budget entry screen. Use the scroll bar to return to where you left off.

Adding Subcodes/Reference Codes The budget entry screens will already be populated with any subcode/reference combination that had budget or actual activity in the prior fiscal year. However, if a user wants to add a subcode or reference code that has not been used in the past, clicking the Add Sub/Ref Code button on the budget entry screen will take the user to the following screen (minus the error message, which is explained below):

34

Page 35: FY 2019 Budget Instruction Manual Table of Contents · Welcome to the FY 2019 Budget Submission process. This instruction manual contains the following sections (you may navigate

The account must be in the Not Processed or In Progress status for a user to be able to add a subcode or reference code.

Certain restrictions have been programmed to prevent certain types of errors. In the example above, the user attempted to add a subcode that is not allowed by PRISM’s cross-validation rules. While not all cross-validation rules have been programmed into the Budget Process Module, all of them are outlined in the subcode table included in this instruction manual. Please refer to the subcode table to ensure any subcodes you are adding are valid for the account to which you are budgeting. Users will also get an error message if they attempt to add an un-enabled subcode/reference value, or a duplicate subcode/reference code combination.

If you incorrectly add a subcode/reference code that you do not want to use, leave the budget field blank or enter a zero. The system will not allow you to delete a subcode/reference code.

Copy Loaded Budget Button This button enters the data for the prior year’s initial budget load into the data entry fields for the new budget year. Copying the prior year’s loaded budget prior to making any entries for the new budget year allows you the opportunity to use the old figures where the budgets do not change from year to year. Although the Copy Loaded Budget action can be initiated at any time, we recommend that it be performed prior to any other data entries, because the action will overwrite most previous entries to the new budget year’s budget fields. If you have entered a value in a field that had no budget loaded in the prior year, the value you entered will not be overwritten. If the Copy Loaded Budget button is selected after entries have already been made for the new fiscal year, the system will bring up a warning message:

Yes will allow the system to copy the prior year’s budget entries. No will bring you back to the data entry screen. You MUST click Save to update the calculations for subtotals, totals, fringe benefits, and overhead. Note that fringe benefits and overhead will calculate using the new budget year’s applicable rates and cost base.

Marking a Department as Entered Once you are done entering the budget in an account and the account is ready for the next level of review, click on the Mark Entered button, which changes the account’s status to Entered. If you are a Department User, you will still be able to view the account, but will not be able to make further edits unless an RC-Level User re-opens the account for data entry. Once an account is marked Entered, an RC-Level User is able to make edits without re-opening the account for data entry.

Special Notes on Financial Aid Accounts (including the Mark Entered All button) If a department has financial aid accounts associated with it, its screen will have two tabs in the upper left corner. The drop-down menu on the Entity 02 Financial Aid (07xxx) tab allows the user to select the individual financial aid account to view or edit.

NOTE: Be especially careful in updating the status of a department that has financial aid accounts. The status of a department as a whole is dependent upon the lowest status of any account within the department. In the example on the previous page, for department 11010 to move from “In Progress” to “Entered”, all six financial aid accounts under that department must be marked “Entered.” If, at the Department Selection screen a department is showing a lower status than you think it should, check the status of the financial aid accounts within the department.

The Financial Aid tab has a Mark Entered All button, which when selected changes the status of all of the department’s Entity 02 Financial Aid accounts to “Entered.”

Special Notes on Auxiliary and Non-Auxiliary Accounts The Budget Process Module automatically calculates overhead. As budgets are entered and saved, the system calculates the appropriate budget for overhead, applying the applicable rate for the account to Modified Total Direct Costs (MTDC; the current MTDC table is included in the Other Resources section of the instruction materials), and populating subcode 8302 (a protected field). See the Target Budget Exhibits and Schedules, Exhibit C section of the instruction materials for an explanation of how to manually calculate overhead.

Underlined buttons are the only buttons available to view-only users. Certain buttons will be available only at certain levels of completion (e.g., once a department has been marked entered, the Mark Entered button will no longer appear, unless the department is re-opened for data entry).

Add Sub/Ref Code Add a new subcode and/or reference number within the established rules – subcode restrictions by entity or department. This button can only be used when a department’s status is either “Not Processed” or “In Process.”

Approve/Reverse Approval Appears on the department selection screen and allows an RC-Level User Multiple Depts to approve/reverse the approval of more than one department at a time.

Assign Multiple Depts Allows an RC-Level User to assign more than one department to a Department User.

Back to Budget Entry Appears on the department security screen, and directs the user back to the budget entry screens.

Copy Loaded Budget Copies the prior year’s non-zero loaded budget into the data entry fields for the new budget year. Fringe benefits, overhead, and subtotals recalculate upon saving, using the appropriate rates and cost base for the new budget year. Prior year non-zero values overwrite any previous data entered for the new budget year.

Department Security Appears on the RC selection screen, and directs the user to the screens used to create or edit rights for Department Users.

Export to XLS Exports the detail records within the budget entry screens to a web version of Excel; if initiated at an RC screen, exports all records for an RC; if initiated at a department screen, exports the records for the department.

Export to XLS: All RCs Available to RC-Level Users. Exports to a web version of Excel all detailed records for all RCs to which the user has rights.

Export to XLS Subcode Appears on screen the user is taken to by selecting the “RC Total by Subcode” button. Exports the RC subcode/reference totals to Excel (without totals). If a user has been given access to only certain departments in the RC, this button should be disregarded.

Export to XLS SUM Exports to Excel total revenues and expenses for the RC by department and account type.

Mark All Entered Applicable only to Entity 02 Financial Aid (purpose ID 07xxx) accounts. Changes the status of all of a department’s Financial Aid accounts to “Entered”, indicating that the accounts are ready for review at the next level. See description for “Mark Entered” below for further information.

Mark Approved After a higher level user has reviewed and approved the entries in an account, that user can indicate that the account is ready for review by the Final Approver at the RC level. After an account’s status changes to “Approved”, a data entry user is not permitted to make further changes. Only a Final Approver can reverse the approval and re-open the account for data entry, or make edits. The approval must be reversed and the account must be re-opened for data entry if a new subcode or reference code needs to be added.

Mark Entered Changes the account’s status to “Entered”, indicating that the account is ready for review at the next level. After an account’s status changes to “Entered”, a department user is not permitted to make further changes. Only an RC-Level User can re-open the account for data entry or make edits. The account must be re-opened for data entry if a new subcode or reference code needs to be added.

Print Opens a new window with a printer-friendly view of the current screen.

RC Recon Available to RC-Level Users. Moves user to screen for viewing or completing the reconciliation between the submitted and target budgets.

RC Total by Subcode Opens a new screen to show totals input for all departments within an RC by account type and subcode/reference number. If a user has been given access to only certain departments in the RC, this button should be disregarded.

Re-open for Data Entry Changes the status of an account from “Entered” back to “In Progress” to allow changes to be made by a department user.

Reverse Approval Changes the status from “Approved” to “Entered” to allow for additional changes by an RC-Level User.

Save Saves the entries made to the database, updates fringe benefit, overhead, subtotal, and total calculations since the last save.

Submit Budget Available only to the Final Approver. After the Final Approver has determined that all entries within the RC have been completed appropriately, and the reconciliation is complete with all differences from the target budget explained, the Final Approver can change the status of all accounts within the RC to “Submitted” and indicate to B&FR that the RC is ready for B&FR review.

Reviewing, Reconciling, and Submitting at the RC Level Once individual departments are at the Entered status level, an RC Budget User or the Final Approver can review the departments individually, in groups of Entered departments, or in total.

Detail and Summary Views Available for Reviewing Keep in mind with each of the options below, Excel’s filter, table, and PivotTable functions can assist the user to quickly and efficiently summarize or drill down into the data at any level of detail the user wants. If you are not familiar with these functions, see the Exporting the Budget Entry Screen to Excel section for on-line tutorials and reference materials on these functions.

To review departments individually, an RC Budget User or the Final Approver can navigate to the department’s data entry screen and click on the Export to XLS button, which will export that department’s data to a web version of Excel, containing the records on the displayed screen, but without subtotaling and formulas. At the initial dialog box, you can choose to either open the spreadsheet or save it to a network drive.

Marking Departments Approved Each department that is in a status of other than Not Processed (no data entered and saved) must be marked Approved (having gone from Not Processed to In Progress to Entered to Approved) before the RC’s budget can be submitted. NOTE: Be especially careful in updating the status of departments that have financial aid accounts. The status of a department as a whole is dependent upon the lowest status of any account within the department. If, at the Department Selection screen a department is showing a lower status than you think it should, check the status of the financial aid accounts within the department.

Once an RC-Level User has reviewed the budget in a department and the account is ready to be included in the RC’s budget submission, the RC-Level User clicks on the Mark Approved button, which changes the department’s status to Approved. At this point, only the Final Approver is able to reverse the approval (changing the department’s status back to Entered), or make edits without re-opening the department for data entry. If a new subcode or reference code is to be added, the Final Approver must reverse the approval on the department before making that change.

Reconciling to the Target Budget There are two screens an RC-level user can use to reconcile their completed budget to their target budget.

• First is the Department Selection screen:

o The RC Total by User row summarizes the total entered and saved OP revenues and expenses, FA expenses, AUX revenues and expenses, and NON-AUX revenues and expenses (for an RC-Level User, this row will include all departments for the RC; for a Department User, this screen will only show the RC Total by User, and not the RC Target Total and Difference to Explain rows).

o RC Target Total represents the RC’s target budgets for OP revenues (per target letter Exhibit B), OP expenses (per target letter Exhibit A) and FA expenses (per target letter Exhibit E). Note that target budgets are not given for AUX and NON-AUX account types, as they are required to budget equal revenues and expenses.

o The resulting difference to explain.

This view can also be used during the process of completing your budget, helping you track where you are in relation to your target budget, and ensuring that AUX and NON-AUX revenues and expenses balance.

The Export to XLS SUM button (circled in red above) will export the data to Excel, although the RC Total, RC Target Total and Difference to Explain rows will not be included in the exported data.

RCs are not required to print this screen or submit anything further to B&FR regarding this screen.

• Second is the Reconciliation screen, which is applicable only to OP accounts, and is accessed by selecting the RC Recon button on the Department Selection screen (circled in blue above). The Reconciliation screen appears as follows:

On this screen:

o Line 1 summarizes what the RC has input in its to-be-submitted budget for all OP departments (entity 02, purpose ID 00000) within an RC in expense categories as follows:

Enter the account number (02.xxxx) and description in the first field, then tab through the columns and enter the appropriate figures (without commas) in the appropriate column to allocate your cost recovery across cost categories.

You can choose to save after each line or just click Add New Line to add another line. You must save before exiting this screen or you will lose your entries.

The system will only recalculate the Total column and lines 2 and 4 when you save your entries. Both the cost recovery column on line 2 and the total column between lines 1 and 2 must be zero. If you have a difference between target and submitted revenue budgets calculated on Line 7, you should have an equal difference on Line 4 (i.e., if you increase or decrease your submitted revenue budget from the target budget on Exhibit B, you should have a corresponding increase or decrease in your submitted expense budget; see area circled in red on the previous page).

may have other circumstances affecting Line 4, but a difference calculated on Line 7 should be part of the difference on Line 4.

The Comments section is a free form text block that allows a user to enter an explanation up to 10 lines and 2,000 characters long. A completed reconciliation example follows:

RCs are not required to print this screen or submit anything further to B&FR regarding this screen, although you may use the Print button to print a copy for your records (looks best if set to landscape print orientation). Note that Kristin Gusten and Shari Manges have read-only access to RCs that report to the Provost and Rich Henderson has read-only access to RCs that report to the Senior Vice Chancellor, Health Sciences, so the only further action needed for these areas is notifying Kristin and Shari or Rich that your budget is complete and submitted to B&FR.

Marking Your RC’s Budget as Submitted Once your RC’s budget is complete and reconciled to your target budget, the Final Approver may submit your RC’s budget to B&FR for review by selecting the Submit Budget button on the Department Selection screen. This action will change the status of all departments in your RC to Submitted. Although you may still review the budget information, it can no longer be edited by your RC. Please ensure that you are very confident that your budget is complete and properly reconciled before you submit it. However, if you have an extenuating circumstance and need to make a change to the budget you have already

submitted, B&FR has the ability (within a limited window of opportunity) to change the status level back to Approved so that you can make your adjustments. Your budget information will be available after the load. When it is imported into PRISM (just before the General Ledger is closed for the month), the status level will be reflected as Transferred. The data will be available for your reference and export to Excel until the following year’s budget process begins in July, at which time it will be overwritten.

Distributed Expense Forms A blank form (##DIST.xls), including instructions, is included in your Target Letter materials. As in prior years, any RC that budgets amounts in subcodes 8301 through 8311, excluding 8302 (overhead), must complete and return the Distributed Expense form in order for its submission to be considered complete. Please submit the form directly to General Accounting ([email protected]) by September 6, 2018 (the same day the rest of your budget submission is due to Budget & Financial Reporting). Before you submit the form, please ensure that:

• All debits and credits are within the same subcodes; • All amounts budgeted in Distributed Expense subcodes are accounted for on the form, and vice

versa (Budget & Financial Reporting will no longer be reconciling the two to ensure that the submitted budgets for Distributed Expenses agree to what will be charged via standard journal entries);

• Any charges to or credits from other RCs that are listed on the form have been agreed to by the other RC; and

• In addition to providing the annual amount, you must also provide a hard-coded monthly amount. Do not put a formula (1/12 of the annual amount) in the monthly amount column. The monthly amount column must be a hard-coded number to two decimal places, and the total debits and credits for the monthly amounts must match prior to submission.

Please make every effort to ensure your submission meets these tests. You will be required to make any necessary corrections.

University of Pittsburgh Office of the Controller – General Accounting Department SUBJECT: PRISM SUBCODE GUIDELINES

The PRISM General Ledger Subcode Listing provides the four-digit codes used to record financial transactions in their “natural classification” and serves as the University’s “Chart of Accounts.” The listing is available at http://www.cfo.pitt.edu/ga/accountno.html. The University’s Account structure for the PRISM General Ledger can aid in the understanding and accuracy of the accounting for University revenue and expenses. Refer to the PRISM Account Structure and Attributes at http://www.cfo.pitt.edu/ga/asas.html for an overview.

REVENUE

Revenue subcodes 4500 – 4580 should be used to record revenue only from sources external to the University. General Accounting must authorize exceptions. For example, the Theatre Arts Department may use the revenue subcode to charge other departments for show tickets.

Sales and Services of educational departments includes revenue incidentally related to the result of instruction, research and public service and revenues of activities that exist to provide instruction and lab experience for students that create goods and services that may be sold to students, faculty, staff and the general public.

Subcode 45XX Examples include sales of scientific and literary publications, testing services, health clinics, specialized service facilities, athletic events, and theaters.

Other Revenue (subcode 4910) is revenue from an external source that does not fall into the classification of tuition, housing, sales and services (auxiliary and non-auxiliary), rental revenue or patent revenue. Gifts received from outside sources should be credited to 4400 – Gifts and not 4910 – Other Revenue.

Subcode 4910 Examples include University Times advertising and subscription sales, residence fees, and Heinz Chapel event fees.

EXPENSES

Expenses are recorded in the University General Ledger by authorized transactions for initial payments e.g., invoices, payrolls, recharges from University administrative and service units, and adjustments of expenditures (cost transfers).

Compensation Expense

Compensation expense subcodes – 5XXX are restricted for usage by the Office of the Chief Financial Officer with the following exceptions:

Subcodes for FICA expenses related to student workers are broken into two categories.

Subcode 5700 Represents students who are FICA paying employees since they carry less than a full-time credit load.

Subcode 5750 Represents students who are not FICA paying employees because they are not required by law to pay FICA taxes. They must be enrolled as full-time students.

NOTE: Subcodes 5700 and 5750 are for usage on Budget Modification Requests (BMRs), Supplemental Salary Personnel Activity Reports (SPARs), and Salary Wage Cost Transfers (SWCTs) ONLY.

Subcode 5880 Compensation Cost Recovery NOTE: This subcode is not used by the Payroll department. Therefore it

may be used in a NSCT entry. Fixed Assets are non-expendable, tangible, personal property with a useful life of more than two years and an acquisition cost of $5,000 or more per unit. For the University to properly record the acquisition of capital assets and to recognize the related depreciation, amounts to be expended for capital assets must be budgeted and recorded in subcodes 6100 – 6105, Fixed Assets.

Equipment and Space Rental Subcodes

Subcodes 6200 and 7300, equipment and space rental respectively, should be used to record expenses resulting from lease agreements made with external (non-University) parties and may not be used for one-time rentals. Financial reporting standards require the disclosure of certain lease information in the University’s audited financial statements each year. Therefore, the space and equipment rental expenses in the PRISM General Ledger must accurately represent the rental amounts according to the lease documents. The appropriate subcode usage for lease/rental expense is as follows:

Subcode 6200 Equipment rental (leases)

Subcode 629X Equipment rental from University sources (Ex: Central Business Services)

Subcode 7300 Space rental (leases)

Subcode 739X Rental and leases of offices, laboratories, garages, etc. owned by the University. Note: Subcode 739X – interdepartmental space rental, must be used on both the debit and credit side of the entry.

Equipment and Space Rental Subcodes Cont.

One-time rentals include equipment and space rentals for which an executed agreement of one year or more does not exist. All departments are required to use subcodes 6208 and 7308 for one-time equipment and space rentals respectively as these items do not meet the criteria for financial statement disclosure.

Subcode 6208 One-time equipment rentals (Ex: furniture, gas cylinders, equipment rentals, All Occasions and United rentals, and delivery charges associated with one-time rentals)

Subcode 7308 One-time space rentals (Ex. Off-site classrooms, fields, and courts)

NOTE: Subcodes 6208 and 7308 may not be used for rentals for which there is a terminated or pending lease agreement.

Storage, coffee service and water cooler rental and supplies should not be charged to rental subcodes. The following subcodes are available for this purpose.

Subcode 6070 Unallowable supplies from external sources that are processed through purchase orders or disbursement requests.

Examples include coffee service, polar water, candy, and flowers.

Subcode 6085 Interdepartmental (internal sources) unallowable supplies purchased from non-book centers.

Subcode 6097 Interdepartmental unallowable supplies purchased from the Book Center.

Subcode 7304 Storage - (Ex: Mobile and self-storage, e.g. Guardian Self Storage and Marodi Transfer and Storage.)

Note: Payments to vendors that provide shredding, records management, and document storage, e.g. BRM and Iron Mountain should be charged to subcode 6400, Professional Services.

Relocation of Faculty & Staff should be charged to:

Subcode 6310 Relocation of Faculty & Staff

Subcode 6397 Interdepartmental Relocation of Faculty & Staff

Travel and Business Cont.

Subcode 639X Interdepartmental conference and registration for faculty and staff training and professional development. Also includes parking permits and faculty recruitment expenses.

Library Acquisitions must be recorded in subcodes 6500 – 6511. Only certain departments may use these subcodes. Refer to the PRISM General Ledger Subcode Listing for the Department restrictions on these subcodes.

Miscellaneous Expense subcodes are used for expenses that cannot be categorized using the natural expense class arising out of the ordinary course of business.

Subcode 8100 Examples include return check handling fees, petty cash purchases, merchant Panther Central (PC), NSF checks and immaterial adjustments needed to reconcile cash, revenue or expenses. Subcode 8100 is also used in place of 826X for transfers between Entity 09 and other entities.

Unallowable Miscellaneous Expense subcodes are used for expenses that cannot be categorized using the natural expense class arising out of the ordinary course of business.

Subcode 8170 Other Unallowable Miscellaneous Expense – excludes donations and prizes.

Subcode 8171 Donations (Unallowable) – Examples include donations or gifts to non-profit institutions. NOTE: Send all tax receipt that you receive from these organizations to the Tax Department, 116 Attwood Street, Suite 201.

Subcode 8172 Prizes (Unallowable) – Examples include prizes to students, faculty, and staff unless part of a University-wide employee recognition program.

Other Transfers Subcodes (8260-8264) should be used to transfer funds between accounts (limited to entities 02, 03, 04, 06, 08, 24, 47 and 48). The same transfer subcode must be used on both the debit and credit side of the transaction to ensure that the net effect of the transfer is zero for financial statement purposes. There is no instance where it is acceptable to use a transfer subcode on only one side of a fund transfer.

NOTE: Subcode 8100 is used instead of 826X for transfers between Entity 09 and other entities.

INTERDEPARTMENTAL CHARGES (IDCs)

There are two types of IDCs, cost center charges and cost redistributions.

Cost Center Charges are for materials or services that originate within the University and whose price components span multiple expense categories. When recording charges (debit), use an interdepartmental subcode that reflects the nature of the material or service. For cost recovery (credit), use subcodes 8400-8409. Cost recovery subcodes should only be used by departments authorized to charge others internally for goods and services provided and should not be recorded in revenue subcodes.

NOTE: External cost recovery of compensation should be recorded in subcode 5880.

Interdepartmental subcodes 608X and XX9X have been established for many services provided to RCs by other University departments e.g., purchases from the book centers; interdepartmental equipment rental, interdepartmental professional services and consulting; and interdepartmental photocopying from the University Copy Center and Vend-a-Card.

Cost Redistributions are materials or services purchased initially from external vendors and then redistributed by the department to the end user of the materials or services. The subcode used resulting from the initial purchase should be from the natural expense classification. Upon redistribution to the end user, the inter-departmental subcodes are used.

For example, Department A purchases scientific supplies from Fisher Scientific and charges subcode 6012 (Scientific & Clinical Supplies). Department B, which is outside of Department A’s area of responsibility, regularly consumes a portion of Department A’s scientific supplies and agrees to be charged based on their actual usage. Department A should process an IDC debiting subcode 6086 (Interdepartmental Scientific and Clinical Supplies) on one of Department B’s accounts and crediting subcode 6086 on Department A’s account. Federal Regulations require the University to separately identify and account for those costs which the Federal government has deemed non-recoverable for indirect cost reimbursement. These costs will be denoted as "Unallowable" as they are not to be included in the allocation of indirect costs to federally sponsored awards. No account is exempt from this treatment. Refer to the PRISM Subcode listing available at http://www.cfo.pitt.edu/ga/accountno.html for further information. Questions regarding the types of costs to be identified as unallocable for federal indirect cost calculations should be directed to Research and Cost Accounting. Subcode 6081 should be used for site licenses. Subcodes 7210 (Relocation of Faculty & Staff) and 7293 (Interdepartmental Relocation of Faculty & Staff) have been disabled. Instead, use subcodes 6310 and 6397 respectively. For “interdepartmental space rentals” (739x) and “distributed costs” (8300 – 8311), the same subcode must be used for both the debit and the credit side of the transaction. COMMON MISUAGE OF SUBCODE – CAPITAL TRANSFERS The same transfer subcodes must be used on both the debit and credit side of the transaction. There is no instance where usage of the transfer subcode on one side of the transaction is acceptable. There should be no P & L impact when using transfer subcodes. The following is an example using transfer subcodes: Example: Let’s assume that Parking & Transportation wants to establish funding for a project to renovate the campus parking garages. The funding is to come from one of the Parking & Transportation unrestricted accounts, 03.22XXX. The following entry is processed to “Transfer” funds from the Entity 03 account to a newly created Entity 06 - Plant account. INCORRECT

Dr. 03.88XXX.7136 10,000

Cr. 06.XXXXX.8220.65XXX 10,000

There is no instance where usage of the transfer subcode on one side of the transaction is acceptable. There should be no P & L impact when using transfer subcodes. There has been some confusion between the usage of transfer subcodes and non-salary cost transfers. A NSCT is a correction of a previously recorded entry. Transfer subcodes should be used to send actual funds to another account to cover incurred expenses. Transfer subcode 8260 should be used when actual funds are being transferred between accounts.

COMMON MISUAGE OF SUBCODE – OTHER TRANSFERS Cont. The following are examples of the appropriate usage of non-salary cost transfers and actual transfers: Example of Non-salary Cost Transfer: Let’s assume you work in the Education Department 22XXX and are reconciling your level reports. You notice a charge (debit) of $100 on your levels that you do not recognize in subcode 6600 - telephone charges. When investigating the charge, you find that the charge should have been applied to KGSB Department 21XXX and a data entry error had occurred. To move the charge to KGSB the following non-salary cost transfer would have been recorded.

Dr. 02.21XXX.6600 100.00

Cr. 02.22XXX.6600 100.00

Note: In the non-salary cost transfer entry example above regular expense subcodes were debited and credited, not transfer subcodes. Example of Transfer: Let’s assume that the Athletic department wants to fund the cost of purchasing a new scoreboard. To cover the cost, athletics wants to transfer funds from one of their Entity 04 Restricted accounts to one of their Entity 02 Unrestricted accounts. The following entry would be processed to transfer funds from the Athletic Entity 04 Restricted account to the Athletic Entity 02 Unrestricted account.

By booking the entry this way, the net effect on the transfer subcode will be zero and the transfer rule is not violated.

Quick Tips on the Budget Process Module 1. In most instances, you will use the Tab key on your keyboard or your mouse to navigate

through the fields on the screen. It is important when performing data entry to Tab out of the field you have just updated before clicking on the Save button, any other buttons, or elsewhere on the page. In the design of Oracle R12, tabbing out of the field prompts the database to perform data validation, which is required before performing another task, such as saving. If a user clicks on the Save button before tabbing out of a field, the system will ignore the instruction to save.

2. Save often. In most, but not all cases, you will receive a warning error if you try to navigate

away from a screen without saving, resulting in lost data.

3. The Save action recalculates fringe benefits, overhead, and subtotals/totals. The system repaints the screen, returning the user to the top of the screen.

4. RC-level users should not also be established as department-level users. Doing so will prevent

buttons from appearing that are needed as an RC-level user.

5. As a user scrolls down a screen, column headings cannot be locked and therefore scroll off the display. We have looked into the ability to lock column headings, and due to programming limitations, it cannot be done.

6. On the Department Selection screen, a department that is blank across the account type

columns indicates that the account is valid in PRISM but it did not have any financial activity (either budget or actual) during the prior fiscal year. This means you may not budget in it through the Budget Process module, and will need to submit a BMR after the budget is loaded.

7. If a department user navigates to a data entry screen like this:

• Check the rights assigned to that user for that account (see Adding a Single User to a Single Department). Is “Yes” selected for the correct account type (OP, FA, NON, AUX)?

92

Page 93: FY 2019 Budget Instruction Manual Table of Contents · Welcome to the FY 2019 Budget Submission process. This instruction manual contains the following sections (you may navigate

• The account might be a valid account in PRISM, but had no budget or actual activity in the prior year. In that case, a budget cannot be loaded, and a BMR will need to be submitted after the budget is loaded.

8. Excel’s PivotTable, filter, and table functions can assist the user in quickly and efficiently

summarizing or drilling down into a large amount of data at any level of detail the user wants. If you are not familiar with these functions, use Help in Excel to learn more about tables and filters. Instructional videos on Excel PivotTables are available through CSSD’s on-line technology training via Lynda.com:

• Log in to my.pitt.edu, • Click on My Resources, • Select Tech Training from CSSD, • Select Access the Lynda askCathy Task link, • Select the blue Start button in the upper right corner of your screen, • Either Ctrl+click on hyperlinks below, or search on lynda.com for the course that is appropriate

for your version of Excel: o Excel 2007: PivotTables for Data Analysis o Excel 2010: PivotTables in Depth o Excel 2013: PivotTables in Depth o Excel 2016: PivotTables in Depth

• Each course is divided into chapters and topics, so you can choose which topics are relevant to you.

9. Department status is dependent upon the lowest level of individual account statuses aside from the default, Not Processed. Be especially careful in updating the status of a department that has financial aid accounts. If, at the Department Selection screen a department is showing a lower status than you think it should, check the status of the financial aid accounts within the department.

10. Note that two users with editing rights to the Reconciliation screen can still access and make

edits to the screen at the same time. The user who accessed the screen first will be able to save changes. Any user with edit rights who enters the screen after the first user will get an error message if he/she tries to save changes.

Other Reminders 1. We receive numerous questions throughout the year regarding proper subcode usage. The

subcode table included in this instruction manual is a comprehensive list. An electronic version of this file is also available at http://www.cfo.pitt.edu/ga/asas.html (scroll to bottom of the screen). Please advise personnel in your area of this website especially if they perform accounting work in the PRISM system. Download the revenue and expense files to your computer and distribute them as needed.

2. Interdepartmental subcodes have been established for many services provided to RCs by

other University departments. Please refer to the subcode table included in the instruction manual.

3. Federal Regulations require the University to separately identify and account for costs which

the Federal government has deemed non-recoverable for indirect cost reimbursement. These costs will be denoted as "Unallowable" as they are not to be included in the allocation of indirect costs to Federally sponsored awards. No account is exempt from this treatment. Refer to the subcode table included in this instruction manual for further information. Questions regarding the types of costs to be identified as unallowable for federal indirect cost calculations should be directed to Research and Cost Accounting.

4. The Approved Operating Expenditure budget for an RC assumes that a consistent level of

revenues with that RC will be achieved. If you budget more than your operating revenue target (Exhibit B), you can increase your expenditure budget by the same amount. Likewise, a decrease from your revenue target necessitates a decrease in your expenditure budget.

5. The sum of total entity 02 revenues and expenses on the forms should equal the target

amounts authorized on Exhibit A. Any discrepancies must be explained on the Recon screen. 6. General definition of revenue: Monetary inflows from external entities resulting from

rendering services, delivering or producing goods, or other activities that constitute ongoing operations. Interdepartmental transactions between service departments and other institutional departments or offices should not be reported as revenues of the service departments but rather as reductions of expenditures (i.e. interdepartmental cost recovery, subcodes 8400-8409) of such departments, since these transactions are essentially interdepartmental transfers of costs.

7. The HR/payroll system allows the use of reference codes in conjunction with salary subcodes. If you would like to budget your salaries using reference codes, you are able to add reference codes if they are not already on the data entry screens. Upon saving, the related fringe benefits will be calculated and the reference code will automatically be inserted. A list of valid reference codes is included in this instruction manual.

8. For the University to properly record the acquisition of capital assets and to recognize the

related depreciation, amounts to be expended for capital assets must be budgeted in subcodes 6100 - 6105 Fixed Assets. Fixed assets are non-expendable, tangible, personal property with a useful life of more than two years and an acquisition cost of $5,000 or more per unit.

9. Library acquisitions must be budgeted in subcode 6500 - 6511. Only certain departments may

use these subcodes. Please refer to the subcode table included in this instruction manual. 10. If your area incurs utility expenses you are required to provide detailed budgets by individual

utility (electricity, gas, etc.). Utility expenditures should be budgeted at the FY 2018 permanent budget adjusted by any related program change in Schedule 5.

11. Any debt service included on Exhibit D must be budgeted by your RC. You may not budget

anything in subcode 8210 unless it is included on Exhibit D. 12. Please communicate in writing to Budget and Financial Reporting the nature of any transactions

budgeted in transfers other than targeted debt service. 13. Any amounts on the budget forms in subcodes 8301 through 8311 (excluding 8302) must be

included on the distributed expense schedule (##DIST). Every item shown on the distributed expense schedule (##DIST) must have an entity, a department, and an equal and offsetting entry within the same subcode.

14. Entity/departments authorized to charge others internally for goods and services provided

should budget cost recovery activity using subcodes 8400 – 8409, not Revenue subcodes. External cost recovery of compensation should be recorded in subcode 5880. See page 5 for information on the transition from 84xx subcodes to xx98 subcodes.
