What do the F&A reports on the Financial Analysis web page mean?
The Installment and Distribution report shows the year-to-date recoveries, departmental distribution, and dean’s distribution for each carrying out org by month. These reports use the subtotal functionality of Excel. You will see numbers in little blocks on the upper left corner of the spreadsheet. The numbers indicate the subtotal level that is being displayed. You can display more detail by selecting a higher number or less detail by selecting a lower number. Thus if you were interested in school totals you would select level 2. However, if you wanted to know the total for an individual org you would select 4. The last tab on the spreadsheet, “Install,” shows the current installment for each FA award. The F&A Distribution by Project reports show the F&A recoveries, departmental distribution and dean’s distribution for each project that has F&A expenses for the current fiscal year. There is a new report each month. Year-to-date as well as current month data is shown in different tabs
