The districts ledger has more expenditure accounts in the Special Education Fund (Fund 27) than shown in the Special Education Fiscal Report Program Entry Screens. What is done with these accounts?
It is possible to have accounts on the district’s ledger, which are valid accounts, but not specifically requested in the Special Education Fiscal Report Program. Refer to the User Guide, page 27, “Rejected Strip File Accounts Report”. This item discusses accounts imported into the program by use of a vendor provided “strip” file. However, the same concept applies, if the account is valid but information is not requested for it, the amount for the account should be reported in function 199 999 (if an instructional activity) or 299 999 (if a support service activity). If the district has a project/program codes other than 011, 019, 091, 092, or the 340 series, such program/project codes are reported as program/project code 599 where appropriate. Note that functions 199 999 and 299 999 and program/project code 599 are reporting codes only. The appropriate WESSAS coding should be used on the district ledger.
