BUDGET DEFICITS

As we approach the end of the fiscal year, it is imperative that departments transfer funds to cover all budget deficits. The Budget Office monitors budgets and distributes to all Deans and Vice Presidents deficit letters detailing indexes with deficits. Departments should monitor their budgets on-line using Banner Self-Service and begin making the appropriate transfers now. If budget transfers for FY09 need to be completed after June 30, the Transaction Date must be changed to 30-JUN-2009.

Please use the following steps to run a Budget Report.

  1. Sign on to My Southeast using your SE Key 

  2. Click on the Employee tab.

  3. Click on My Southeast Self-Service.

  4. Select Finance. 

  5. Select Budget Queries.

  6. At Retrieve Existing Queries, select Budget Report Template (Shared) from the drop down menu.  This template is a standard budget report format designed by the Budget Office. 

  7. Click Retrieve Query.

  8. Click Continue.

OPEN ENCUMBRANCES

As we approach the end of the fiscal year, now is a good time to be aware of the status of any open Purchase Orders and General Encumbrances (Cash Advances).

Please follow the steps below to get a list of the encumbrances that remain open in your budget.  Review this list for any purchase orders that may need to be closed or cancelled and any cash advance general encumbrances that an Expense Report has not been received in Accounts Payable.  Attention to these items will permit a smooth transfer from budget fiscal year 2009 to budget fiscal year 2010.

Also, remember that payments cannot be issued against purchase orders, which require a receiver, until a receiver document has been entered. 

Thank you for your attention to these items.  If you have any questions or concerns please contact Accounts Payable at ext. 2055.

Open Purchase Orders & Outstanding Cash Advances by Index or Fund/Organization

It is important for all departments to stay up to date on any Purchase Orders or Cash Advances that remain open on their Index(s).  It is a good practice to run this Query on a monthly basis and review any open encumbrances.   

  1. Sign on to My Southeast using your SE Key

  2. Click on the Employee tab.

  3. Click on My Southeast Self-Service.

  4. Choose Encumbrance Query.

  5. Select Open PO's and Cash Advances from the drop down menu.

  6. Click Retrieve Query.

  7. Enter the Index or the Fund and Organization.

  8. Click Submit Query.

  9. The query results will be a list of open Purchase Orders and Cash Advance General Encumbrances.

Close/Cancel a Purchase Order

If there are items on a purchase order or a full purchase order that needs to be closed or cancelled.  Please fill out a Close/Cancel Form and send it to Accounts Payable MS 3250.

Encumbrance Roll

On August 1, any remaining balance on an open FY09 Purchase Order or Travel Encumbrance will be rolled to the new fiscal year. Budget dollars equivalent to the encumbrance will also be carried forward. These entries will show on the FY10 Budget Report and Encumbrance Query in the original FOAPAL but will not have the original document number.
