A common list of account codes would not adequately account for the unique business needs of each college or department.
To accurately allocate expenses to an expense account, the business purpose along with the item and/or service purchased should be reviewed to make a determination regarding the proper account code.
Please visit the University Controller’s Office, Guidelines and Reference website, to review the complete listing of account codes and definitions for revenues or expenses.
Help documents to assist with account coding of common purchases are available by reviewing A/P Quick Reference.
