If department XYZ (1111111) purchased supplies, the expense would be recorded as follows:
- 714100-10000-1111111-11100-11000-15x
714100 = Supplies Account, 10000 = The General Fund, 1111111 = The Department No., 11100 = Program Code “General Academic Instruction”, 11000 = Class type “General Operations”, and because this is not a grant the last field would be left blank.
If department XYZ makes a deposit at the Bursary for fees, it would be recorded as follows:
- 10000-5x-11000-1111111-15x-452100
The order is slightly rearranged. The fund is 1st, the 5x represents the program which is not needed for a revenue (unless it relates to Auxiliary), then we have the class, department, project is blank and lastly the account# 452100 refers to sales revenue.
