GL Module
Create a New Fund
Summary
In order to create a new fund in a fiscal year, you must
first create the fund header in that fiscal year. The fund header is the
description of the fund and is set up for each fiscal year. If you have a uniform
chart of accounts (GL> Utilities> Setup> General tab> Uniform chart of
accounts toggle), the fund header is created using the Section Maintenance
window (GL> Maintenance> Section). If you do not have a uniform chart of
accounts, use the Account Header One (GL> Maintenance> Acct Header One) to
create a new fund header.
Once the fund header has been created, create a fund balance account in the new fund.
