New accounts are requested for a variety of circumstances:
Within the General Education Fund (Fund 0011), new accounts are established to provide documentation and tracking of new budget objectives or new strategic goals, i.e., a new program or new endeavors that require separate budgeting and tracking of expenditures.
Outside the General Education Fund, a new activity or endeavor which requires separate tracking of a cash balance, new revenue and related expenses, is the most common reason for requesting a new account.
Financial Accounting and Reporting Services establishes the majority of new accounts. To request a new account, the form with instructions, "e-Business Request for New Account" is available from the forms repository.
New accounts for Grants and Contracts are established by Sponsored Programs when monies are received. Please contact michele.mullings-shand@uni.edu.
Charitable contributions are deposited with the UNI Foundation. For more information, please contact foundation.accounting@uni.edu.
