Terminate Fund Training

The system can be accessed from:

The system auto populates information about you and your department in the User Information section. This information is based on Banner HR data.

In the Terminate Fund section, a red asterisk appears next to all required fields.

The Chart Code is auto populated from the drop-down menu based on your User Information.

You are able to type the fund name or fund number in the Enter Fund/Grand ID field to initiate the search.

The Effective Date will be auto populated to today's date.

The Check Termination Items section lists questions that must be answered Yes before the fund is able to be closed. If any of these questions appear with a red No beside it, please contact Accounting Services.

You are able to click either the Save button (saves your work) or the Save & Submit button (sends your request to the approval process).

When the Save button is clicked, the system will notify you that your request was successfully saved at the top right corner.

When the Save & Submit button is clicked, the system will notify you that your request was successfully submitted at the top right corner and redirect you to the Search page. If any required fields are not completed, the system will remain on the same page and will not submit the request to approvals. All required fields must be completed before clicking Save & Submit.

When the Terminate Fund request is submitted, the request will be routed to Accounting Services for approval and then to Finance Systems Management for final review and processing.

Attachments and Comments

An Attachments button and a Comments button will appear at the bottom left corner after clicking the Save button.

After the Attachments box opens, click the Choose File button. Select the file you wish to upload and click Upload Attachment. If you accidentally upload an incorrect file, you are able to delete it by clicking on the trash can icon under Actions. Once the attachment is added, click Close.

After the Comments box opens, click the Add button to include additional information about the request. Click the plus sign to add the comment or the minus sign to delete the comment. Once the Comment is added, click Close.

The green bubble icons on each button indicates how many attachments or comments the request has attached to it.
