An account code is a six-digit numeric value that defines the specific type of revenue source and/or expenditure within a fund.

The account code's structure has been established to be consistent across all funds. Although several account codes have been permanently established, others are available for specialized uses within departments of the University. They are:

• Budget Codes - (Certain digits are indicated by a "-") These codes are to be used for budgeting purposes only. They have been established for identifying budget dollars within a fund for groups of account codes which are similar in nature. For example, a budget can be set up for travel (73----), but expenditures must be coded against a specific object code (731xxx-739xxx).

• Standard Codes - (All six digits are predefined or the "X" is replaced with a zero) These codes have been assigned specific values and descriptions in the object code listing. For purposes of summarizing data across the University, Standard Codes for revenue and expense must be used consistently for the designated purpose by all departments.

• User Optional Codes - (Certain digits are indicated by an "X") These codes are available for optional use by departments for the purpose of further subdividing types of revenues or expenditures. The proper use of these codes will provide the user with maximum flexibility of account code assignments. Care should be taken when assigning values to User Optional Codes to assure that the assignment made accomodates the specific needs of the user, and is consistent with the summary title description on the object code listing.

  The account code listings below include revenue and expenditure Budget Codes and Standard Codes. Users may view a complete list of revenue and expenditure account codes, including user optional codes, in one of two ways:
