Maintaining Capital Project Accounts

Business and Financial Services Project Accounting staff members validate and reconcile 36 project account expenses. In addition, they reconcile between DEFINE and FAMIS.

Certain campus entities such as Information Technology Services (ITS), Parking and Transportation Services (PTS), Environmental Health and Safety (EHS), and auxiliary departments can charge their services directly to a Capital Project 36 account. In these instances, accounting technicians will ask project managers to verify the charges and then manually post into FAMIS utilizing a Miscellaneous Cost posting.

The Project Accounts manager certifies and reconciles charges to 36 project accounts on a monthly basis.
