RSCCC Budget provides you with a great
deal of flexibility when preparing the budget for your
district. You can build a budget from scratch or use
the current year information to generate amounts on
which to base your next year budget.
The Budget application consists of three types of budget
records: requested, recommended, and approved. With this
feature, site-based management is easy because campuses
can enter their budget amounts in the requested column.
Through district-defined user profiles, users can be
limited by account number, organizations, program intent
codes, etc. This allows you to analyze the requested
budget and develop the recommended budget for next year
without affecting the current year budget or the general
ledger. District-defined cutoff dates for requested,
recommended, and approved can be set so no further updates
can occur. Notes can be entered for each line item to
assist with justification of the account amount.
The reports available through the Budget application
let you closely monitor your budget, both for verification
and for presentation. The Board reports provide you with
more compact, summarized reports and should be used for
presentation of the recommended budget.
Once the recommended budget has been approved, you can
post the budget directly to the general ledger in RSCCC
Finance. This eliminates manual entry of these accounts
and opening balances, assuring that the values entered
are accurate.
The advantages to RSCCC Budget are that the screens
within the application follow point-and-click Windows
standards and make it easy for the user to enter the
exact data required to establish table data, maintain
system data, post transactions, reverse transactions,
change transaction data, and conduct inquiries.
The Budget application has been created with all applicable
state and federal regulations in mind while providing
the flexibility needed in creating and maintaining a
district budget.
