Overview
The article provides guidance for departments on the resource transfer journal entry process.
Essential Information
Information to know about resource transfer journal entries:
- Resource transfers will impact only the General Ledger (and are not reflected in PPM).
- The transfer will be on Account 774XXX and at the end of the year, it will roll into Account 300000 (Fund Balance).
- The Fund and Account segments for the debit and credit on the journal entry must be the same.
Do NOT submit a resource transfer journal entry if:
- Moving resources on a Sponsored Project.
- Moving an expense, complete a cost transfer instead:
- KB0033191: Cost Transfer Guide.
- KB0033457: How to Initiate a Full or Partial Cost Transfer in Oracle PPM.
- Missing or incorrect Project on a Purchase Order (PO), then correct the PO.
- Requests for resource transfer on No Project (0000000) to a Project will be transferred to Procurement Support.
- The journal entry is crossing funds.
- The correction needs to happen in the subledger the transaction was initiated from.
NOTE: Departments must work with their local journal entry contact(s) to initiate resource transfer journal entries.
