Fund Balance processing is a coordinated effort among Budget Office, Foundation Accounting, and Finance (internally distributed among Grants Accounting, GAFR, and Treasury). This process will occur on August 8, 2024. You can review your FY25 account balances in OBI on August 9th to see updated balances. If you have questions about your centers and funds available for spending, please contact your planning unit CFAO.

The FY24 roll-forward process is consistent with the processing that has occurred since FY21.  Accounts are defined as Consolidated or Cost-Center roll-forward: all designated accounts roll forward at the full Cost Center, Entity-Source-Organization-Activity (E-S-O-A) and consolidated accounts (UNR, non-auto carryforward) are collapsed into a default reserve account based on unit type.
