05/23/13Decision Support: New Report - Account Activity Summary (348)
A new report in FIS Decision Support (DS) is now available. Account Activity Summary (348) can assist campus in more effectively monitoring gift and endowment funds. This new report, which can be run by multiple criteria including Organization and Sub Fund Group, and returned in browser or spreadsheet format, provides a snapshot of the financial activity which has occurred on an account/fund. Year-to-date budget, expenses, and balance are provided for each account returned by the query, with the expenses summarized by Object Consolidation. Included in the report are the restriction, purpose, and location codes for Regents’ endowments and the gift purpose for current use gifts and Foundation endowments. Hovering over the Fund Name or Account Name will show the Fund Purpose or Account Purpose, respectively.The intent of this report is to provide a tool whereby all gift and endowment accounts held by a unit can be viewed in one place. The report can be used to track spending and to determine the appropriateness of expenses as related to the gift/endowment purpose.
Although created with gift and endowment stewardship in mind, you may find this report helpful to use for any Sub Fund Group.
