Helpful Hints If an Account number begins with a 1, 2, or 3 (a balance sheet
account) the Tcode is either B410 (for a credit “-“) or B411 (for a debit “+”).
If an Account number begins with a 4 or 5 (a revenue account) the Tcode is either 410 (for a credit “-“) or 411 (for a debit “+”). Also, revenue accounts MUST have a Prog FIN of “000.”
If an Account number begins with a 6, 7, or 8 (an expense account) the Tcode is either 412 (for a credit “-“) or 413 (for a debit “+”) Also, expense accounts CANNOT have a Prog FIN of “000.”
While any fund can have a project, if the fund is either 1113 or 1253, then there MUST be Project information included (Proj Business Unit, Project, Activity ID, Resource Type, and Analysis Type). For General Ledger accounts, Analysis Types are “GLE” for EXPENSE accounts and “GLR” for REVENUE and BALANCE SHEET accounts. Cost share accounts will use CGE or CGR as directed by Grant Accounting.
If the fund on an EXPENSE account is 1112 the Prog FIN MUST be “081”. NOTE: for a REVENUE account, refer to second point above.
