Open commitments will be rolled on this date. Open commitments are the purchase orders in department cost center(s) committing funds for which supplies or equipment have not been paid or received. The roll moves open items to the new fiscal year. You will not be able to see these items in the old fiscal year once they have been rolled. However, we will have a file containing the commitments that existed in the cost centers at June 30 on the Controller's web site after July 16.

July 5 Noon

 

Cutoff for department journal entries. Each department must have all its journal entries to Accounting Services by this date if it wants them processed in the current fiscal year. Please write the fiscal year at the top of all journal entries submitted before the year-end close to make sure they are posted to the correct fiscal year.

 July 5 Noon

 

 Cutoff for parked documents. Each department must have all parked documents to Accounting Services by this date if it wants them processed in the current fiscal year. Please write the fiscal year in the document header text of the parked document submitted before the year-end close to make sure they are posted to the correct fiscal year.

Close Fiscal Year. The majority of all transactions will be processed to department cost centers by this date. Some year-end work study charge-backs and adjusting entries will be processed by Accounting Services after this date. Each department will see its matching share of work study shown as a credit to revenue and a debit to expense. The work-study charge-back has a net zero effect. Departments can view and print reports at this time but must remember that there could be some other miscellaneous items processed after this date.

July 29

 

Target date for posting the 2010-2011 Plan to the new fiscal year. This date depends on when the State appropriations and tuition & fees are approved.
