Vendor Maintenance Please note that due to the confidential nature of the data included in the vendor maintenance form (SSNs and/or Banking information) and as an observation during an audit performed on the vendor maintenance process, if you keep a paper/digital copy of the form, you MUST follow University Policy (UPPS 04. 01) on securing Texas State Information Resources. Our suggested method is for the FI Master Data Center to receive the forms directly. Once the vendor is setup in the system we will notify the individual provided in section F of the form.

General Accounting Office http: //www. txstate. edu/gao Chart of Accounts February 21, 2014
What is an Account? Ø An account* is generally a 20 digit number that gives information about the source of funding and the department or university organizational unit that is receiving or spending money. *Note: In this presentation we’ll focus primarily on revenue and expense accounts, not balance sheet accounts. Balance sheet accounts use one element comprising 10 digits. Ø The 20 digits are made up of either: “Fund” + “Cost Center, ” or “Fund” + “Internal Order. ” Ø Accounts are either assigned a pre-determined budget by the Office of Budget, Financial Planning, & Analysis or generate their own budget by receiving funds. Budgets give the account manager authority to spend the funds in accordance with university policy. 12
What is a Fund? Ø Method of grouping like accounts based on the type of revenue, not the planned expenses. Ø Allowable expenses from the account are affected by the source of funding. Ø Four main sources of funding cover the operations of most university departments: § E&G, § Designated, § Auxiliary, and § Restricted. 13
E&G Funds Ø E&G funds account for state appropriations: § General Revenue Appropriations, § HEAF Appropriations, § Staff Benefits Appropriations, or § Other State Appropriations. Ø Funds that start with “ 1. ” Ø Generally used to pay salaries and benefits and for assets acquired through HEAF. Ø Generally more restrictive than “M&O” accounts. 14
Designated Funds Ø The Designated fund group holds money that is derived from tuition and fees, indirect cost earned on sponsored programs, and some business activities. Ø Funds start with a “ 2. ” Ø The Designated fund group is comprised of 5 main types of accounts: § Designated Method, § Indirect Costs (F&A), § Fees, § Income Generating Activities, or § Service Departments. Ø Designated Method is most department’s main M&O account. Ø Budget is generally a set amount for the year (can request budget changes through BFP&A). However, some activities may still have responsibility to “make budget. ” Ø Expenses, other than alcohol, are generally permissible with valid business purpose. 15
Auxiliary Funds Ø The Auxiliary fund group holds money that is derived from business activities primarily for the benefit of the students and faculty. Ø Funds that start with a “ 3. ” Ø Revenues from fees for services to students, faculty, staff, and public. Ø Expenses should match fee purpose. Ø Budgets are generally set and department is responsible for “making budget. ” Ø Expenses, other than alcohol, generally permissible with valid business purpose. 16
Restricted Funds Ø The Restricted fund group holds money resulting from a donation where some type of restriction is placed by the donor on the way in which the money can be used. Restricted funds are also required to account for funds derived by enabling legislation. The restriction must be from the “outside. ” Ø Funds that start with a “ 4” (Discretionary) or “ 8” (Grants). Ø Includes distributions from endowments as they must follow the restrictions of the endowment fund. Ø In addition to having a valid business purpose, expenses must meet the conditions imposed by the donor. Ø Alcohol is OK from a “ 4” restricted gift account but not from an “ 8” grant account. Ø Employee contributions require special considerations!! Ø Budgets for “ 4” funds are determined by income (Revenue Increasing Budgets). Budgets for “ 8” funds are set by OSP according to the award agreement. 17

Cost Centers Ø Identifies the university department or university organizational unit that is responsible for managing, spending, and if applicable earning some source of funding. Ø Activity in the account is ongoing. Ø First six digits are utilized to define the organizational hierarchy. Ø Remaining digits are utilized to segregate unique activities, operations, etc. Ø Account managers are assigned the responsibility of overseeing cost centers. Ø The term “cost center” is used for the Finance (FI) module in SAP while the term “fund center” is used for the Financial Management (FM) or Budget module in SAP. The terms are interchangeable!! 22
Cost Center Number Schema q First 3 sets of 2 digits denote hierarchy q Level 1 (L 1) – President & VPs 10 – Institutional (crosses all divisions) 14 – VP Financial & Support Services 11 – President’s area 15 – VP Student Services 12 – VP Information Technology 16 – VP University Advancement 13 – Provost/VP Academic Affairs 17 – Athletics q Level 2 (L 2) – Reports to Level 10 – Assessment 19 – College of Education 12 – RRHEC 20 – College of Liberal Arts 18 – College of Applied Arts 21 – College of Science q Level 3 (L 3) – Reports to Level 2 10 – CLAS 11 – Health/Human Perf 12 – LBJ Institute For Improvement 13 – The Education Institute 14 – Curriculum and Instruction 19 – Educ Policy Implementation Center q Example: 1319140000 tells us that: Curriculum and Instruction (L 3) reports to the Dean of Education (L 2) who reports to the Provost (L 1). 23
Internal Orders Ø Provides a way to separately account for an activity managed by a member of a university department or university organizational unit. Ø Is generally time dependent, such as a contracted service with a start and stop date. Ø Internal orders can be created as a statistical order, funded program, or a grant. Ø Master data for regular funded programs and statistical orders are maintained by FIMDC. Ø Grants are funded programs whose master data is maintained by the Office of Sponsored Programs. Ø The distinction between the statistical programs and funded programs/grants is the level for budgetary control: § Funded Programs & Grants are budgeted at the IO level. § Statistical orders are not budgeted at the IO level but derive their budget from the associated cost center. 24
Internal Orders Ø The first digit of the internal order number identifies the type of internal order and, in some cases, the purpose of the internal order: Ø NON-GRANTS (maintained by FIMDC) § 5* = statistical orders. § 7* = CIP/Au. C* – construction/capital projects. * CIP = Construction in Progress; Au. C = Asset under Construction § 9* = Miscellaneous temporary projects & internal “grants/awards. ” Ø GRANTS (maintained by OSP) § 1* = State Appropriated Grant IO. § 8* = Non-state appropriated Grant IO. 25
GLs Ø GLs or General Ledger accounts are used in conjunction with Funds, Cost Centers, and Internal Orders for one of 2 purposes: § To define the type of revenue or expense involved in a transaction, or § To identify a balance sheet account. Ø Similarly to Cost Centers/Fund Centers, the FM module refers to GLs as Commitment Items. The terms are mostly interchangeable. We will generally use the term GL in this presentation. 26
GLs Ø Six-digits in length. Ø First digit signifies whether account is a balance sheet or an income statement (revenue or expense) item: § 1 = Asset § 2 = Liability § 3 = Fund Balance § 4 = Revenue § 7 = Expense § 6 = Budget Commitment items for revenue and expense. Used in FM module, primarily for the Budget to Actual Report. 27
FI Master Data in Transactions Ø Balance Sheet (Three Elements Always required): – (GL) Account – Fund – Business Area: Always 1000 Ø Revenue/Expense Scheme 1: – Cost Center – Statistical Internal Order, if applicable, begins with a 5. 28
FI Master Data in Transactions (cont) Ø Revenue/Expense Scheme 2: § IO/FPs beginning with 7* (CIP/Au. C) or 9* (Misc project): § § add the Internal Order (IO) number Omit Cost Center Fund for 7* IO will usually also begin with 7* Fund for 9* IO will vary § § § add the Internal Order (IO) number Omit Cost Center Fund will usually also begin with 1* § § § add the Internal Order (IO) number Omit Cost Center Fund will usually also begin with 80* § § § add the Internal Order (IO) number Omit Cost Center Fund will usually begin with 80* § Grant IOs beginning with 1*: § Grant IOs beginning with 80*: § Grants beginning with 89* (WBS element): 29
