| When I try to set up a new
company/account/center on GL screen 287, I get this message: COMPANY/FUND
NOT ON MASTER COMPANY TABLE. What does this mean? |
Each new fund number used
within a company must be approved by the appropriate central management
agencies. Once the new fund is approved, you OSC systems accountant
will add it to the NCAS Master Company Table. Contact your OSC systems
accountant for status on the approval of this new fund number. |
| My agency is re-designing
their Chart of Accounts. Is there any way to add company/account/center
combinations and descriptions faster than individually on GL screens 286/287/288? |
Accounting keys and miscellaneous
descriptions can be added through a batch process. The number of
new accounting keys/descriptions must be significant in order for the batch
process to be more efficient than online entry. Generally the agency
is responsible for giving OSC a spreadsheet of the new keys/descriptions.,
and OSC will set up the batch process. If the new keys/descriptions
are in a distinctive pattern, OSC can assist in creating the spreadsheet.
A staff member of the Financials Model Team will assist in determining
whether the batch process is warranted and will assist the agency with
the details. SIG reference is
Agency
Batch COA Maintenance. |
| How can I tell if a company/account/center
is set up? |
The best way to determine
if a company/account/center is set up is to use the Center Information
screen (GL014). Since this is an inquiry screen, all system users
have access. Using screen GL014 instead of Add or Change An Account/Center
(GL287) prevents accidentally locking an accounting key. |
