Daily emails from the Director of Accounting — Questions about year-end procedure? Feel free to contact your area accountant or Laura Ragin.
Thursday July 17 – Today’s year-end tasks are:
1. This is the final daily reminder email for the FY08 close.
2. The OUC will begin running close procedures tomorrow. This is a reminder that journals should not be created, validated or approved after 6:00 pm today and all day tomorrow.
3. ABS will soon send supporting documentation reports to the departments with balance sheet accounts such as accounts receivable, deferred revenue, manual accounts payable, deposits held in custody etc. In a change from prior years, this year we will email the supporting documentation requests in the form of Excel spreadsheets. We believe this will be an easier, more efficient method. We need you to complete those reports for the detail by customer. These reports are due back to ABS by July 25th.
4. 5:00 pm is the cut-off for time collection for the July 12 bi-weekly payroll. Please run the payroll Suspense Report and make sure your funding distribution is correct and approved for all payments to avoid payroll suspense.
5. Although this is my last daily reminder email, there are still a few more dates to pay attention to beyond today on page 12 of the Departmental Year End Memo (http://abs.colorado.edu/ABS_WEB/fye/08/FY08_Department_YearEnd_Memo.pdf#page=12).
Thank you for all your hard work during this year’s close. We cannot do it without you!
Wednesday July 16 – Today’s year-end tasks are:
1. No more June JEs because the June 2008 accounting period is now closed to departments. If you discover an error that you didn't get corrected, or if you feel there is a need for a JE for FY08 activity, please notify your area accountant as soon as you discover it. There is a lot to do at year-end and some things may get missed no matter how hard we try to catch everything. If this happened to you, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can determine the proper handling of the error.
2. If you need to create a PET, make a note to change the default date to a July date. The PET creation screens currently default to 6/30/08 and will do so until Friday, July 18.
Tuesday July 15 – Today's year-end close tasks are:
1. 6:00 pm today is the deadline for a department to enter a FY08 June journal entry including allowable BJEs. So please do your final review of your FOPPS to identify errors and enter corrections. Make sure all assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and transfers are properly stated and all clearing FOPPS are cleared. Remember to change the journal date to 6/30/2008 for FY08 transactions.
2. Review any June journals you have started or that you are responsible for approving and either finalize or delete them.
3. 6:00 pm is the deadline to enter FY08 Fund 30/31 and 34 journal entries (no more PETs) and for all required documentation to be furnished to ABS/SPA to ensure ABS/SPA approval for the final close. These journals require departmental approval and should be put in their own journal, separate from other Funds and from each other to speed up the SPA/ABS approval process. Contact Hua Xu, mailto:hua.xu@colorado.edu, 2-1679 with project cost transfer questions, and Carrie Howard, mailto:carrie.howard@colorado.edu, 2-1071 about gift journal approvals. Keep checking for unposted journals you need to correct and validate, approve to post, or for which you need to supply info or documentation to Hua or Carrie so they can review and approve it. See tips for sponsored projects JEs: http://abs.colorado.edu/ABS_WEB/fye/08/SPA.pdf.
4. After today, ABS will be doing some clean up in preparation for the final campus close on Thursday, July 17th.
5. After today you can stop changing the journal ID date to 6/30/2008. Any unposted journal entries with a June date will be deleted by ABS or Systems since the June 2008 accounting period will be closed to departments.
Monday July 14 – Today's year-end close tasks are:

3. Remember to change the journal date to 6/30/08 if you are processing a FY08 journal entry.
