Fiscal Year-End Closing

Fiscal Year-End Reporting

Purpose:

Due to the timing of the annual external audit, year end reporting timeframes and procedures are modified from the regular monthly closing process.


Reports and On-line Query Information:

    1. End-users have access to on-line Banner information regarding their budget and expenses. Those with on-line access may look up budget vs. actual information at any time.
    2. The Controller’s Office staff will post a message on First Class in Faculty/Staff to inform users of the preliminary year-end closing date. When you see this message, you may print out departmental reports for June fiscal year end preliminary close.
    3. Carefully review these reports and note any discrepancies or adjustments that need to be made.
    4. Send in correcting journal entries promptly, or contact the Controller’s Office for consultation.
    5. Final reports will be accessible as soon as the external auditors perform their review and final statements have been prepared.
    6. Actual expense information for the new fiscal year will be available for budget viewers via on-line query forms. New fiscal year budget data will be entered into Banner as soon as possible after July 1st.
