Creating a New Fund


Before creating a new fund in the system, it is strongly recommended to perform a search for existing funds prior to creating a new one.  In order to search for existing funds, follow the instructions outlined in the section named Fund Search.

Once you have performed a search and are certain that the fund you want to create is not in the system, create a new fund by one of the following methods:

   Click on the New Fund Entry link at the top right corner of the Fund Administration - Search Funds page (FU0004).

   Click on the New Fund Entry menu option on the Payment and Fiscal Management main menu. 

As a result of either of these methods, the next page displayed is the Create New Fund page (FU0011).

Complete the following fields as described by using the down arrow () next to the field to make your selections.

Fiscal Year

The fiscal year identifies the appropriation fiscal year for funds.

Vision Dept. ID
