Required for transactions with a project budget. When entering data, either project or department will be required. The department equates to UCF departments, while projects equate to University grants, contracts, or construction projects with specific beginning and ending dates. These were formerly known as life-to-date accounts, and often lasted for several years. Projects will also represent some auxiliary accounts with specified budget periods. The Project field is 8 digits.

Definition:

  • 1st-4th digits= same as FLAIR in most cases
  • 5th digit= funding source
  • 6th-8th digits= consecutive (see illustration below)
