Once a department head revises the budget lines in the template and “submits” via the system, what happens to that submission?
Department budgets must be approved online by the department head (not the proxy). Once approved, the system automatically forwards the budget template for review and approval to the Budget Officer/Dean – who has the authority to change as deemed appropriate. Once the Budget Officer/Dean approves the department budget, it is automatically forwarded to the VP/Provost for review and approval – and that individual also has the ability to change as deemed appropriate. Only after the VP/Provost approves the budget is it forwarded to the Budget Office. The Budget Office reviews and reconciles, correcting if necessary such that all the department budgets roll up to the university wide total budget approved by the BOT. The new budgets are then uploaded into Banner in late June for the new year; after July 1st, the Cognos reports (as made available by FAS) will reflect the new budgets.
