Summary: Learn about the program code, which classifies the purpose for transactions in IFIS (Integrated Financial Information System). |
|
The program code is a six-digit number used in IFIS to identify the function associated with a transaction or balance.
The program code is one of the seven elements of the Chart of Accounts, the organized structure used to record and report all University financial transactions. The elements together are referred to as IFOAPAL.
To view a list of program codes, perform a program query.
Within the context of the University accounting system, the following functions are performed by the University:

The first two digits of the program code define the function associated with the program. For example: Program code 400000 begins with 40 and is used with transactions related to instruction. Program code 436030 begins with 43 and is used for transactions associated with academic support.
Campus academic departments use a limited number of program codes within each function, with the exception of research programs. (Find out more about research program codes.) Health science, administrative, and service departments may use many more program codes to record transactions for various aspects of their operations.
How are program and organization codes related? For any transaction, the first two digits of the program code must match the first two digits of the organization code (except for organization codes that start with 41).
