How to Handle a University-Related Event Account

Step 2: Set up university-related event account(s)   INTRO   1   2   3  NEXT
  What to do How to do it
A. Identify the fund number Each school or college has at least one fund number for their university related event accounts. One way to find yours is to use Decision Support (DS) query Account Lookup (11). Do the following:
  • Make sure the correct Chart is checked
  • For the Organization Code (org), use the highest level org for your school or college (Lookup)
  • Enter OP Fund 68 followed by the wildcard (i.e, enter 68%)
  • Use Sub Fund Group OTHUNV
  • Click Process Query
In the search results, the last 5 digits in the OP Account column comprise the fund number. If the column shows more than one fund number and you can't determine the most appropriate choice, contact your dean's or vice chancellor's office. If further assistance is needed, contact General Accounting.
B. Process Kuali Financial System (KFS) Account document(s) The event/activity may be fully funded by fees and other income sources; however, your department is responsible for covering any deficits. Please discuss this with your dean's office before creating the Account document.

Prepare KFS Account (ACCT) document(s) to establish the event/activity account(s). If you are charging fees and receiving money from a sponsor, two accounts are needed to keep the money separate. If two accounts are needed, indicate that in the Account Name field.

In addition to the steps in the How do I Create an Account guide, follow these tips when setting up the account(s):

For the UC Account field, use a UC account that begins with 40 (instruction) or 62 (public service). If your department doesn't have a UC account beginning with 40, request one from General Accounting.

On the Account Assessment Types tab of the Account document, enter the correct NUD:

  • If charging event-specific fees, enter CARZ and CAIZ to exempt from campus assessment
  • If charging general membership fees (rare), enter NUD1
  • If charging both types of fees, create separate accounts using the correct NUD code for each
  • If not charging fees but there's a sponsor receiving a direct benefit, enter NUD1
  • If charging fees AND there’s a sponsor receiving a direct benefit, create separate accounts using the correct NUD code for each (see above)

Next - Manage the university related event account(s)
