What type of funds are 3xxxxx projects?

It depends on the specific Project ID. Projects in the 3xxxxx series are subdivided into two major types of funding sources:

  • 30xxxx – 34xxxx funding source is State Appropriations – Academic Affairs

  • 35xxxx – 39xxxx funding source is Auxiliary Sales, and Sales and Services

1xxxx – Asset
2xxxx – Liability
3xxxx – Fund Balance

Fund Codes indicate the source from where the resources came from and have different rules governing what type of business can be conducted in association with that fund. Has a length of 5 digits, for example :
