To Request a Funds Transfer to a Designated (Non-Budgeted) Fund:

A transfer is needed to move funds to/from designated (non-budgeted) funds. Transfer accounts (808xx) are used for this purpose. Transfers need to be funding for a project or event in the current fiscal year, or they need to be grant-matching funds for the current fiscal year. Remaining funds will be carried forward to the next fiscal at the end of the year.

To request a transfer of funds, send an email general ledger that contains the following information:

  1. Debit: Where the funds are coming from

    • FOA

    • Amount

    • Description

  2. Credit: Where funds are going to

If the event is in the next fiscal year, please include an explanation of why the transfer is needed in the current fiscal year, such as to cover expenses occurring in the current fiscal year.)

If there is no budget in your budgeted org in the transfer line, please send a Budget Change Request (BCR) to the budget@spu.edu to transfer the budget from the appropriate FOAA.
