UNC ACRONYMS AND TERMS
PID
The Person ID Number (PID) is an identification number assigned to all persons with a university relationship, as de-
fined by an official university department. This number is designed to give all persons a universal number (PID or
Person ID) that is unique to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The number is nine-digits long and re-
places all existing card numbers previously used on campus. The PID is the primary record keeping key for all de-
partments within the university and must be used for all communication.
Learn More: http://pid.unc.edu
Onyen
The Onyen is the name for UNC's campus-wide identifier that you can use to gain access to various electronic re-
sources on campus. Although it is a word, you can think of it as an acronym for the "only name you'll ever need." The
distinctive name is intended to prevent confusing it with the myriad other user ids that exist across campus.
Learn More: http://onyen.unc.edu
OneCard
The UNC One Card is a multipurpose identification and on-line accounts card. You can use it for anything on cam-
pus from Chick-Fil-A ® to Parking Tickets. It is the official ID card for students, faculty, & staff of The University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Your One Card provides access to certain facilities & events, and also serves as your
UNC Library card.

New Manager Resources
The Arts & Sciences Dean’s Office offers a new manager orientation and Manager Mentoring Program to assist new
managers with acclimating to this critical role.
New Manager Orientation
The goal of the College of Arts & Sciences new manager orientation is to provide a welcome to the CAS and an

the College’s values and organizational structure. The HR Staff Development Specialist will contact you to schedule
your HR Orientation meeting.
Interim Manager Support
Interim Managers are administrative professionals, expereinced in the business processes in the CAS, who
provide support when a department has no administrative manager. They are assigned on a part-time basis and are staffed one to three days per week. An Interim Manager's assignment is set for a mutually agreed upon amount of time. The need for an Interim Manager is estabalished by the department chair in conjuction with the CAS Business Operations staff. It is based largely on departmental need and the number of
departments receiving support.

CAS - New Employee Checklist
Welcome to the (Department) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Here is a
step-by- step checklist to assist you during your first months of employment.
BEFORE YOUR FIRST DAY
Parking
Employees at UNC who wish to park on campus must obtain a permit and pay a
fee. The cost of parking is payroll deducted. To review parking options and costs,
visit the UNC Parking website.

pertaining to your parking permit.
Employment Forms
• Locate/obtain documents you will need to complete your Employment
Eligibility Verification (I-9). You must bring these documents with you on your
first day of work. You will also need a voided check from your bank on your
first day of work. If you do not have one, you should go to your bank and obtain
a routing document with your bank account information. Your I-9/E-verification

two forms, the Ap2 and the Ap2A. These forms should be completed, signed,
and sent back to the ( Office) office as soon as possible.
Paychecks
The Payroll website contains calendars with pay dates. Please contact (Name)
if you have any questions about the date you will be paid.
Benefits

This information will also be covered in your required orientation at the Friday
Center.

month following your employment. (For example, if you begin work on 1/1, your
health insurance will begin 2/1.)
YOUR FIRST DAY OF WORK

other dining facilities and have the expense deducted from your paycheck.

HR TRAINING & SYSTEMS
While most of your training will occur on the job, university Training and Talent Development offers specific courses
in HR policy, procedures and guidelines.
You can view the course catalog and register for training at http://www.connectcarolina.unc.edu.
Access forms for the human resources and payroll systems can be found in Infoporte at Tools>Data Dictionary>General Info. Each of the forms for Connect Carolina is available for download. You will need your PID and onyen handy to complete the required forms.
Please contact the Dean’s Office for sample access forms or to answer any questions about completing the required
user access forms.
Managers whose simple and complex transactions are being handled by the Business Center will not need access to
this system. Managers that will process simple transactions will require access.
PeopleAdmin: The recruitment system used for job postings for all employee types.
The University is using Oracle’s PeopleSoft to replace its administrative systems. A separate tool, PeopleAdmin, has been implemented for Recruiting. The ConnectCarolina HR/Payroll project is a collaborative effort involving IT and HR/Payroll staff from central offices as well as representatives from schools and units across campus.
Some important things to know about ConnectCarolina
The Benefits of a Single, Integrated SystemThe PeopleSoft modules fit together like pieces of a puzzle to make one comprehensive system. The student applications lock in to the HR modules which in turn lock in to the Finance applications. With reporting, information is consistent and easier to access across the Student, HR, Finance, and Payroll applications. In addition, new reporting tools will make it easier for schools and departments to build custom reports, without having to request reports from ITS or the central offices.
Less Error Checking During the Process, More Pre- and Post-Audit ProcessesIn our homegrown HR and Finance systems, each transaction has our custom error checks built in to it. PeopleSoft operates under a philosophy of fewer error checks while a transaction is being entered, balanced by more auditing reports. When you’re making the switch to PeopleSoft, you will have lots of training and written step-by-step procedures to help you make the right choices and enter information correctly.

Common Authorization Tool
Common Authorization Tool (CAT) is a tool to manage persons’ authorities for various College applications. CAT can
be accessed via the intranet under CAS Reporting Systems and Calendars. Managers are expected to manage ac-
cess to systems using the Common Authorization Tool for faculty and staff in their department(s).
A user manual for CAT can be found by logging in with your onyen and password at: https://cat.oasis.unc.edu and
clicking on the help button. The help document lists the College applications with a description of each and explains
user roles in the system.
College Systems and Listservs
Administrative Managers are assigned a bundle of access using the Common Authorization Tool. This bundle in-
cludes access to the listservs administered by the Dean’s Office and systems access, such as Staffing Workload,
Arts & Sciences Reporting, etc.

Form I-9 Information for Departments
All U.S. employers are responsible for completion and retention of Form I-9 for each individual hired for employment in the United States, including citizens and noncitizens. The employer must verify the employment eligibility and identity documents presented by the employee and record the document information on the Federal Form I-9.
In compliance with North Carolina law, all State of North Carolina agencies and universities, including UNC-Chapel Hill, are required to participate in the E-Verify program, which became effective Jan. 1, 2007. The University verifies each new employee’s employment eligibility using the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s E-Verify program immediately upon start of work. An individual’s employment will be terminated if he/she fails to comply with the employment verification requirements, or if it is determined that he/she is not authorized to work in the United States, or if a non-immigrant alien’s temporary work authorization expires.
I-9 Specialists in the Office of Human Resources (OHR) are responsible for auditing Forms I-9, processing employment eligibility verifications for all campus hires, completing Form I-9s for SPA permanent staff and assisting campus departments with questions related to the Form I-9 and E-Verify processes.
Department I-9 preparers (usually HR Representatives) are primarily responsible for completing Form I-9s for EPA faculty/non-faculty and EPA/SPA direct-hire temporary staff, submitting Form I-9 information via the University’s electronic Form I-9 system (LawLogix) and complying with federally mandated deadlines and regulations, as well as conducting periodic self-audits.
Effective February 5, 2015, all campus I-9 preparers must complete Form I-9 training before they may begin preparing Forms I-9. To become an authorized campus I-9 preparer, the individual must compete the following computer-based (CBT) and in-person training class requirements:
21
• I-9 Policy Training (CBT)• I-9 Procedure Training (CBT)• E-Verify Training (CBT)• LawLogix System Training (in-person)
In order to gain access to the University’s computer-based training system, Sakai, the proposed I-9 preparer (or HR Officer) must contact the OHR/I-9 unit by calling the I-9 hotline at (919) 962-0985 or emailing [email protected]. Individuals must register for the LawLogix System Training class through SelfService in ConnectCarolina.
Once all training requirements are completed, the I-9 preparer must submit an HR Systems Access Request form to his or her school’s or division’s Access Request Coordinator (ARC). Once training completion has been confirmed and systems access is approved, the ARC will be able to grant LawLogix access to the I-9 preparer.

What is Career Banding?
Career banding is a compensation management and position classification system that was first introduced by North Carolina’s Office of State Human Resources (OSHR) in 2004 on a pilot basis. Career banding reduces the number of classification titles, but increases the size of salary ranges.
A major goal of career banding is the increased ability to recruit, retain and develop a qualified, motivated, and diverse workforce. It does this by allowing compensation to be aligned with labor market pay rates relative to competencies (i.e., the knowledge, skills, and abilities) required in the position and demonstrated by the employee on the job. Career banding allows for quicker reaction to labor market fluctuations. The career banding system delegates compensation decisions to managers and holds them accountable for those decisions. Such localized management decreases turn-around time for compensation decision-making and improves reaction time in retention situations.
Career banding also streamlines position classification by reducing the number of job titles. In addition, the overall design of the career banded structure focuses on defining and establishing career paths for employees. This assists employees who want to enhance their careers in State government while encouraging employees to develop the skills necessary for the University to succeed.
In the career banding system, mechanisms have been established to help managers and employees understand how to advance salaries within a band. The career banding system recognizes that competitive pay levels encourage excellent performance. The system accomplishes this by aligning compensation with market pay related to the level of competencies required in a position and demonstrated by the employee in the position. Competencies must be demonstrated on the job, measured according to standards set by the organization and required of the job based on the organization’s needs.
It is important that each manager understands the difference between performance and competencies and is able to explain the difference to employees. A competency assessment documents that the employee has demonstrated that s/he has the knowledge, skills and abilities needed to do the work. It is based on the specific competencies required to do the work. A performance evaluation measures the achievement of individual goals set annually by the manager. Each employee has measureable goals and performance targets. The performance evaluation documents whether or not the assigned work was completed and if the goals were met. A performance management process is linked to strategic goals and objectives of the University and focuses on the measurement of results.
Remember: A competency assessment documents the employee’s possession and demonstration of a competency. Performance evaluation documents the results of the employee using these competencies.

Overview of the Career Banding Framework
Job families are major groupings of jobs that represent general fields of work where career paths are identified and career planning is emphasized. OSHR has established ten job families:
Administrative andManagerial
Institutional Services
Engineering andArchitecture
Law Enforcement and Public Safety
Health and Human Services Medical and Health
Information and Education Environment, Natural Resources &Scientific
Information Technology Operations and Skilled Trades
Each job family is further categorized into branches, which in turn contain roles. Roles represent the various classifications that have been banded together due to similarities in position attributes, nature and scope of the work, and competencies required to meet business needs.
Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Example 4
Example 5 Example 6
Job Family
Environment, Natural
Resources and Scientific
Environment, Natural Resources
and Scientific
Admin and Managerial
IT IT LE/Public Safety
Branch Research Research Social/Clinical Research
Systems Support Public Safety
Role Technician Specialist Assistant Analyst Technician Officer
Each role has three competency levels. Contributing competency level represents a position that requires entry level competencies to perform the work of that role. Journey competency level represents a position that requires mid-level competencies to perform the work of that role. Advanced competency level represents a position that requires the highest level of competencies to perform the work of that role. Competencies for each role are available at: www.osp.state.nc.us/CarerBanding/Specs%20profiles%20crosswalks/Profiles/profiles.htm
Each competency level has unique market rates. Market rates are regularly monitored by OSHR and adjusted when necessary to reflect changes in labor markets as reported in industry compensation surveys. State agencies and universities may vary from the market rates within limits based on their unique labor market. Compensation is managed around the market rates based on the position’s competency level and the application of the pay factors.
27
Career Banding Pay Philosophy
It is the goal of the university to compensate employees in career banded positions at levels sufficient to encourage excellent performance and to maintain the labor market competitiveness necessary to recruit, retain and develop a competent and diverse workforce.
Managers are responsible for documenting compensation decisions and are accountable for ensuring employees in career banded positions receive fair and consistent treatment for career opportunities and compensation.
Pay factors represent the general parameters within which pay decisions must be made. Managers are accountable for fair and consistent application/documentation of the following pay factors:
Financial Resources - The amount of funding (budget) that a manager has available whenmaking compensation decisions based on business need.
Appropriate Market Rate - The market rate applicable to the competencies required in theposition and as demonstrated by the employee. Consideration is given to contributing, journey, or advanced market rates for the position, related labor market information, and market dynamics.
Internal Pay Alignment - The consistent placement of salaries among employees whodemonstrate similar required competencies in the same banded class within a work unit or organization.. Consideration is given to equity as it pertains to current salary, market index and total compensation.
Required Competencies - The competencies and associated levels that are required based onorganizational business need and subsequently demonstrated on the job by the employee. Consideration is given to: minimum qualifications for the position; knowledge, skills, abilities, and related education and experience requirements; duties and responsibilities; training, certifications, and licenses required in the position.
Career Banding Pay Plan Provisions
1. Only active, permanent full-time, part-time, and time-limited, non-probationary SPAemployees are eligible for adjustments under this system. Please note limitations described in bullets numbered 2 through 4 below.
2. Employees who have an active disciplinary action are not eligible to receive career bandingsalary increases.
3. Employees with an overall “Below Good” or “Unsatisfactory” performance rating are noteligible to receive career banding salary increases. Employees with an overall performance rating of “Good” or better are eligible to receive career banding salary increases.
28
4. Employees on Leave of Absence are not eligible for career banding salary adjustments.
5. Promotional, new hire, and reclassification balances from actions that occurred prior to careerbanding shall not be recognized after the employee is transferred into a career banded role.
6. The career banding salary adjustment request will not be reviewed by the Office of HumanResources (OHR) until:
The requested adjustment is initiated in HRIS. All required supporting documentation is completed and submitted to OHR and/or the
HR Facilitator, based on the School’s or Division’s approval process and level ofdelegated authority.
7. Career banding salary adjustments are effective on a current basis; they are not retroactive(except for actions to adjust salaries to the overall band minimum with implementation by OSHR of Band Minimum Adjustments). The effective date of any career banding salary adjustment can be no sooner than the beginning of the next pay period in which the department approved the adjustment. The departmental approval date is the date received in OHR, including all required supporting documentation and electronic workflows.
8. Career banding salary adjustments shall not be communicated to employees until after theactions have been approved by OHR.
9. Salary adjustments are not mandatory with the exception of salaries below the overall bandminimum for the role, and in certain situations where a salary is over the band maximum (i.e., demotions or reassignments).
10. Salaries paid as a result of recruiting shall not exceed the maximum amount published forrecruitment purposes in a vacancy announcement (i.e., the published hiring range that was established, budgeted, and approved by the hiring manager).
11. Promotional and re-employment priority: until career banding is implemented for all jobfamilies, employees in career banded roles will be assigned a pay grade equivalency only for promotional and re-employment priority purposes as stated in the State Personnel Manual. The pay grade equivalency is not a determining factor in establishing salaries for employees in career banded positions.
12. Employees in career banded positions are eligible for shift premiums and overtime premiumsas allowed through the pay policies in the State Personnel Manual and/or University’s SPA policies.
13. Career banding adjustments may be recommended for temporary position changes ortemporary promotions. Existing HR policies must be followed to support and process requests for all dual, acting, temporary, and secondary appointments.
29
14. Salaries are expected, but not required, to be within guidelines established for the position’sassigned competency level. Application of pay factors may warrant an employee being paid outside of the competency guidelines but not at or above the next competency market rate.
Department managers are accountable for applying the pay factors and making, justifying and documenting fair, consistent, non-discriminatory, and fiscally responsible recommendations and decisions with regard to managing compensation and internal pay alignment.

Take responsibility for career development Develop competencies
System Monitoring and Self-Assessment:
System assessment and monitoring are essential components of the compensation/classification system.
Members of the Equal Opportunity Advisory Committee provide an independent, informed, and concerned voice with respect to achievement of the goals of equal opportunity. Members of that respected group extend the value of their knowledge and opinions through participation on the Career Banding Advisory Committee. This committee is charged with reviewing the operation of the career banding system to ensure it operates in a fair, consistent, and non-discriminatory manner. Specific roles and responsibilities of the committee include: Review career banding activities and aggregate data to ensure consistency and fairness.
Advise management on needed changes and improvements.
37
Assist in compiling a report of findings and recommendations for presentation to theUniversity’s Associate Vice Chancellor for Human Resources and to the Office of StatePersonnel.
The Committee meets annually, or more frequently, depending on the work that needs to be accomplished. Appropriate training for Committee members is arranged by the Office of Human Resources. Members of the Committee are provided the opportunity to request additional training or clarification whenever necessary.
In conjunction with the Advisory Committee’s assessment, monitoring by OHR and OSHR includes ongoing review/examination of personnel actions for compliance with policy and regulations. This level of monitoring will include, but will not be limited to, analysis to determine if:
Competency assessments are properly completed, signed, discussed with employees, andfiled in the department’s personnel files.
Salary recommendations are based on appropriate application of the pay factors and
justified in adequate detail on the SPA Salary Recommendation Form.
Salary action type is appropriate.
Salary recommendations/decisions are documented and approved by all appropriateauthorities in the School, Department and/or OHR.
Proper supporting documentation is provided where required (e.g., peer group analysis,
organization charts, position description forms, position competency reviews, etc.).
Individual increases greater than 20% are being reviewed by OSHR.Career Banding Dispute Resolution Process:
A dispute resolution process, separate from the University's formal grievance procedures, allows employees with career status to appeal salary decisions made by their immediate supervisor/manager. Salary decisions based on availability of funding are not eligible for consideration in the dispute resolution process. Salary decisions which are eligible for consideration must be based on one of the following in conjunction with a promotion, reassignment, demotion, or career progression adjustment as defined in policy:
Amount of salary adjustment is less than appropriate amount as determined through payfactors.
No salary adjustment has been granted when applicable pay factors would support anadjustment.
38
Employee competencies have been inappropriately evaluated.
An employee may appeal a manager’s decision with regard to a career banding salary action by documenting the basis for an appeal on the Career Banding Dispute Resolution Form. This form must be submitted to OHR/Classification and Compensation within thirty (30) calendar days of notification of a career banding salary action by his/her manager. OHR will screen the appeal and if it meets eligibility requirements, forward it to the next level of management or other designated decision maker in the department if appropriate. The decision maker must be at a higher level than the initial decision maker. The decision must be communicated by the higher level decision maker(s) to the employee and OHR, ensuring that resolution is completed, within 60 days of the employee’s appeal.

employees.• All goals will be weighted at 5 percent or more, depending upon the importance of the
goal to the position.• Departments will be asked to recalibrate their ratings to ensure that all employees
receive fair and consistent performance expectations and ratings.• Institutional goals, individual goals, and overall ratings will all be rated on a 3-point
scale: Exceeding Expectations, Meeting Expectations, Not Meeting Expectations.• There is one annual appraisal form for Probationary and Career SHRA employees.
NEW PERFORMANCE PROGRAM ELEMENTS

WE ARE CONFIDENTIALWe will not identify you or discuss your concerns with anyone withoutyour permission. The only exceptions are when we believe that disclosure is necessary to address an imminent risk of serious harm or when we suspect abuse or neglect of a child or disabled adult, or if otherwise required by law. We do not keep permanent records about individuals. We assert that there is a privilege with respect to confidential communications with the ombuds, and we resist testifying in any formal proceeding. This privilege is held by the office and cannot be waived by others.
WE ARE IMPARTIALWe do not take sides; we consider the rights and interests of all parties. We do not judge, discipline, or reward anyone. We are advocates for fairness. We have no personal stake in the outcome of any situation.

What is an ombuds?
The word ombudsman (OM-buds-man) comes from Sweden, where theterm was first used to designate a public official who was appointed to investigate citizens’ complaints against governmental agencies. We use the shorter term "ombuds." Here at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the ombuds helps faculty, staff, students and administrators solve workplace problems, and gives generic feedback on matters of general concern.

FINANCE
II
Policy Statement
Moneys received by the University come from various sources, including: State appropriation or grants and receipts, Federal government grants, customer sales of goods and services, private source gifts, contracts and grants, foundation support, endowment and investment income, interest income, rental of real property, royalties, and proceeds from debt. The definitions and criteria for each type of fund is critical to establish accounts appropriately and ensure funds are received and related financial transactions are accounted for in a manner that will demonstrate compliance with legal requirements and with the authority provided by the State of North Carolina.
For accounting purposes, University funds are separated into three major groups, eachhaving its own office for account establishment and accounting responsibility:
State Funds
State fund accounts are established and maintained by the Budget Office. These are funds received from the State as direct appropriations and institutional receipts, and are recorded in State-controlled budget codes. There are three broad categories of State budget codes:
UNC Budget Code 1 corresponds to State Budget Code 16020-Academic Affairs
UNC Budget Code 2 corresponds to State Budget Code 16021-Health Affairs
UNC Budget Code 8 corresponds to State Budget Code 16022-Area Health Education Centers
Contract and Grant Funds
Contracts and grants are by definition, part of the Institutional Trust Funds category, andare administered by the Office of Sponsored Research (OSR).
Contract and grant funds are received from the federal government, not-for-profit organizations, state government, and for-profit organizations. The award amount is stated in the notice-of-award letter. The award contract dictates how these funds will be allocated and includes funding parameters, such as the effective date of the award and the number of years the award is granted. The agency awarding the funds determines whether budget remaining from one project year may be carried forward to the next project year.
OSR is responsible for sponsored programs that encompass any scholarly, professional, orcreative activity conducted by University personnel using support from external funding sources through grants, contracts, cooperative agreements, or other agreements. Such programs include but are not limited to organized research, instruction/training, other sponsored activities, and research/support services. The criteria to identify “sponsored programs” are provided by the University of North Carolina Sponsored Programs Research Council (SPARC).
Institutional Trust Funds, Special Funds, and Endowment Funds
These are non-appropriated funds and authority for the establishment is granted through general statutes and General Administration policy. Institutional trust funds, special funds, and endowment funds are often collectively referred to as “trust funds” in practice. Trust fund accounts are established and maintained by Accounting Services in accordance with the North Carolina State General Statutes that govern the type of account.
Chapter 116, Article 1 of the General Statues, General Provisions
Provides legal requirements, corporate powers, rights and duties of the University of North Carolina System.
General Statute 116-36.1, Regulation of Institutional Trust Funds. Provides the legal authority for the University to establish institutional trust funds.
45
The trust funds are described in State legislation as follows:moneys, or the proceeds of other forms of property, received by an institution as gifts, devises, or bequests that are neither presumed nor designated to be gifts, devises, or bequests to the endowment fund of the institution;moneys, or the proceeds of other forms of property, received by an institution as gifts, devises, or bequests that are neither presumed nor designated to be gifts, devises, or bequests to the endowment fund of the institution;
moneys received by an institution pursuant to grants from, or contracts with, theUnited States Government or any agency or instrumentality thereof;
moneys received by an institution pursuant to grants from, or contracts with, anyState agencies, any political subdivision of the State, any other states or nations or political subdivisions thereof, or any private entities whereby the institution undertakes, subject to terms and conditions specified by the entity providing the moneys, to conduct research, training or public service programs, or to provide financial aid to students;
State agencies, any political subdivision of the State, any other states or nations or political subdivisions thereof, or any private entities whereby the institution undertakes, subject to terms and conditions specified by the entity providing the moneys, to conduct research, training or public service programs, or to provide financial aid to students;
moneys collected by an institution to support extracurricular activities of students of the institution;moneys received from or for the operation by an institution of activities established for the benefit of scholarship funds or student activity programs;
moneys received from or for the operation by an institution of any of its self-supporting auxiliary enterprises, including institutional student auxiliary enterprise funds for the operation of housing, food, health, and laundry services. See Auxiliary Funds.
moneys received by an institution in respect to fees and other payments for services rendered by medical, dental or other health care professionals under an organized practice plan approved by the institution or under a contractual agreement between the institution and a hospital or other health care provider.
moneys received from the disposition effected pursuant to Chapter 146, Article 7, of any interest in real property owned by or under the supervision and control of an institution if the interest in real property had first been acquired by gift, devise, or bequest or through expenditure of moneys defined in Section II.A. as "trust funds", except the net proceeds from disposition of an interest in real property first acquired by the institution through expenditure of moneys received as a grant from a State agency (Chapter 529 of the 1981 Session Laws)
General Statute 116-36.2, Regulation of Special Funds of Individual Institution Provides the legal authority for the Chancellor of each institution to have custody and manage the institution’s special funds. It provides that the Board of Governors shall adopt uniform policies and procedures applicable to the administration of these funds, which shall assure that the receipt and expenditure of such funds is properly authorized and that the funds are appropriately accounted for. The special funds of an individual institution include:
Moneys received from or for the operation by an institution of its program of intercollegiate athletics;
Moneys held by an institution as fiscal agent for individual students, faculty, staff members, and organizations.
General Statue 116-36, Endowment Fund Provides the legal authority to the board of trustees of each constituent institution to establish and maintain, pursuant to such terms and conditions, uniformly applicable to all constituent institutions, as the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina may from time to time prescribe an endowment fund and shall establish an investment board known as “the Board of Trustees of the Endowment Fund of (name of the University)”. The Board of Trustees shall be responsible for the prudent investment of the fund.
46
Any gift, devise, or bequest of real or personal property to the University shall be presumed, nothing to the contrary appearing, to the endowment fund of the University. In other words, gifts or donations where the principal is to remain intact (the gift exists in perpetuity) and is to be invested to produce income that may be expended or reinvested are called Endowment funds. Endowments can be funded by one gift or several gift installments over time. The solicitation of these funds is usually coordinated through the Office of University Advancement. Endowment fund accounts are comprised of a principal account and an income account. Income account is considered expendable, which means the funds are immediately available for expenditure.
Proceeds from any endowment fund shall not take the place of State appropriation or any part thereof but rather supplement the State appropriations so it may improve and increase its functions and enlarge its area of service.
Income from the endowment, which is invested in the UNC-CH Foundation Investment Fund, is distributed annually in June of each year.
Four different types of Endowment Funds refer to: Carolina Development.
Plant FundsFor accounting purposes, the University has classified the following as plant funds:
Capital improvement funds, institutional trust funds, and bond proceeds for capital projects
Debt retirement funds as required by the debt the University has incurred for capita projectsl
Investment in plant funds reflects assets and liabilities of the University.
General Statute 116-41.7, Proceeds of Bonds, Revenues, etc., deemed trust fundsProvides the legal authority for the proceeds of all bonds issued and all revenues and other moneys received pursuant to the authority of this Part shall be deemed to be trust funds, to be held and applied solely as provided in this Part. The resolution authorizing the issuance of bonds shall provide that any officer to whom, or bank, trust company or fiscal agent to which, such moneys shall be paid shall act as trustee of such moneys and shall hold and apply the same for the purposes hereof, subject to such regulations as such resolution may provide.
Auxiliary FundsAuxiliary funds are another category of Institutional Trust Funds regulated by General Statute 116-36.1 and result from the sales of merchandise and the rendering of services by self-supporting operations. Many times these operations serve students, faculty, staff, and the general public. Examples include: housing operations, food services, bookstores, student health services, parking services, central warehouse operations, printing and duplicating services, and facilities service and repair operations. The funds generated from these activities are expended to meet the service mission of the department.
Another example is Organized Practice Plans, which provide medical, dental, or other
health care services (UNC Health Care and Dental Faculty Practice). The funds generated from these activities are budgeted to maintain or improve the areas of teaching, research, patient care, and public service as well as to support the administration of the plan.
Auxiliary funds include recharge centers (also referred to as Internal Service funds) which
provide goods or services to campus departments. University funds are used to pay for the goods or services. Departments with auxiliary funds set prices for their services based upon their own costs to provide these services, and are subject to other rules and regulations as to how much they can charge.
47
Facilities and Administrative (F&A) Funds, also known as Overhead Receipts
These funds are generated by contracts and grants activity used to support infrastructure
and other research-related activities, commonly referred to as indirect costs. These costs are not readily identifiable with a particular project or activity, but are necessary to the general operation of the University and the conduct of the activities it performs. The costs of operating and maintaining buildings and equipment, depreciation, general and departmental administrative salaries and expenses, and library costs are examples of these types of expenditures.
F&A receipts are calculated based on certain expenses (i.e. direct cost base) paid from
contracts and grants accounts from the prior fiscal year (July 1 – June 30), then multiplied by the rate negotiated at the time of the award. Effective July 1998, F&A funds are classified as Institutional Trust Funds, but are treated in some respects like a state fund. This is because these funds must follow the same rules and regulations as state appropriations but with a few exceptions.
Agency Funds
Funds are classified as agency funds when the University is acting as an agent for these accounts belonging to an external organization affiliated with the University. These are monies held by an institution as a fiscal agent for individual students, faculty, staff members, University-related foundations and organizations. Agency funds are generally expendable. However, endowments of an affiliated foundation are administered in agency funds. University-related foundations are the most common example of agency funds. Funds held in a University-related foundation are transferred to university trust accounts as foundation allocations (foundation grants/awards) for spending by the University department.
Additional Information
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What do you do when a trust fund that was previously established does not to meet trust fund requirements but could be an activity that should be accounted for as appropriated receipts? A: You need to contact the Budget Office to review the activities and establish an account in the proper fund, if needed. Moneys in the trust fund related to the particular activity should be moved to the new appropriated receipt fund account.
Q: What is meant by self-supporting?
A: A self-supporting activity is an operation that pays for all its costs and is not supported by other operations. All costs incurred by other funds for the benefit of the activity must be reimbursed.
Q: Can Sales and Service Trust Funds (Auxiliary Funds) use State funds to support their activities?
A: No. Sales and Service Trust Funds are required to be self-supporting and any activity supported by State funds must be reimbursed.
Q: We have some gift and residual accounts that are used primarily by one professor or primary investigator for their research. Are these accounts “owned” by that professor? A: All monies received by the University in gift accounts or residing in residual accounts are considered University property. These accounts are available for use for the purpose intended as stated in the Fund Authority. While some are restricted to one particular use, such as scholarships or a particular research, those that do not have a specific restriction are considered departmental funds to be used at the discretion of the dean, director, or department chair.

The Business Unit contains fi ve characters and typically defaults on the page for you.
There are three categories of Business Units:
Each foundation has its own business unit. Most begin with CH followed by three letters identifying the foundation.
Examples of Business Units for foundations include:
• CHBUS - Business Foundation• CHLAW - Law School Foundation• CHJRN - Journalism Foundation• CHDEN - Dental Foundation
Chartfi elds are the mechanism for categorizing and tracking all University fi nancial transactions. A series of chartfi elds makes up a chartfi eld string, which is required on every transaction. A chartfi eld string answers several questions, including:
• Where is the money coming from?
• What is the general purpose for the funds?
• Who is spending the funds?
Understanding the chartfi eld structure helps you identify valid chartfi eld combinations for your transactions. Incorrect chartfi eld values will result in processing delays and inaccurate data.
Core chartfi elds. There are fi ve core chartfi elds entered on every transaction at the University.
• Business Unit• Fund• Source• Account• Department
An additional three chartfi elds are used for Contracts & Grants and Capital Improvement transactions.

The Fund chartfi eld identifi es two things: 1) the major fund group, which is a high-level grouping of funds such as State funds or Endowment funds, and 2) the general purpose for the funds. The Fund is needed to meet State reporting requirements.
The Fund has fi ve digits: the fi rst three identify the fund group and the last two identify the purpose.
FUND
FUND GROUP PURPOSE
The Source identifi es where the money is coming from within the major fund group. It identifi es the source of the funds at a greater level of detail, such as a named individual gift, an individual scholarship, and a specifi c activity.
Each Fund has a specifi c range of numbers, and those numbers only work with a specifi c range of Sources. The insert shows the Fund ranges and the corresponding range of Sources.

To manage workflow, follow these steps:
1. Go to Main Menu > UNC Campus >Department Workflow ConfigNote: Anyone who has access to the financepart of ConnectCarolina can use this optionto view how approvals are set up for theirdepartment, but only MOU leads and theirdelegates have access to make changes.
2. Do one of the following:
• Type all of or part of the departmentnumber in the Department field.
• If you want to search by description, change“begins with” to “contains” beside theDescription field and type all or part of thedescription.
Managing Approvals Workflow and Approvers
Major Organizational Unit (MOU) leads manage and maintain the approval workflow for their school or division. For each department in their organization, they choose:
• which transactions require departmentalapproval (for the ones where approvals areoptional)
• how many levels of approval are requiredwithin the department for each type oftransaction
• who in the department approvestransactions
MOU leads can also choose to delegate the tasks of maintaining approvals workflow.

Specifying Which Transactions Need Approval & How Many Levels
Setting up DelegatesUse these steps to specify which types of transactions require departmental approval and how many levels of approval they need.
Turn Approvals On and Off
On the Dept. Approval Cfg tab in the Departmental Hierarchy and Options box (near the top of the page), mark the check boxes for each type of transaction that requires departmental approval. The transactions that require departmental approval are “grayed out,” so you can’t unmark their checkboxes.
Add Levels of Approval
If a transaction has a check next to it, it has at least one level of approval. The approvers listed at the bottom of the page are the approvers for this level. (These are also the approvers for the department if it is listed as a second or third level approver for another department.)
To add a second or third level of approval, type the department number in the Level 2 or Level 3 column beside the transaction you want to add another level to.
To add another level of approval for this transaction, choose the
department here
You can’t change the boxes that are
grayed out
Adding and Removing Approvers
Use these steps to add and remove approvers for a department.
At the bottom of the Dept. Approval Cfg tab, in the Departmental Approvers section, you can add or remove approvers. Note: The University recommends that you always have at least two approvers for each type of transaction that requires approval.
To add an approver, click one of the plus signs on the right side of the Departmental Approvers box (scroll all the way to the right to see it). The system adds a new row. In the Approver Oprid field, choose the approver’s Onyen. Check the box for each transaction you want the person to be an approver for.
To remove an approver, click the minus sign that is on the same row that the approver’s Onyen.
Choose approvers hereMark the transactions they should
approve here

Commitment Control Ledger Group
Changes for Budget Period 2018
What’s New for Budget Period 2018?
Beginning with budget period 2018 the budget ledger groups are being simplified. The F&A,
State, and Trust budget ledger groups are now combined into new FAST-related ledger
groups. FAST stands for F&A (FA), State (S), and Trust (T). By combining the ledger groups,
the budget team reduced the number of ledger groups from 18 to 7. The simplification
improves system performance, reduces complexity, and reduces the amount of data the
system needs to manage. Also, nine of the State budget rollup accounts were consolidated
under other existing rollups to simplify budgeting.

Budget Journals and Transfers
Changes to State Budgeting Accounts
Budgets Overview Inquiry in ConnectCarolina
Changes in InfoPorte
Who is Affected by This Change?
Most of the changes are behind the scenes, but if you enter budget journals and transfers, you
will need to choose the new ledger groups on those transactions. If you run budget inquiries
or reports in ConnectCarolina or InfoPorte, you’ll see some changes to the filtering options.
The following pages describe these changes in more detail.
Budget Journals and Budget Transfers
There are three important things to do when creating budget journals and transfers in budget
period 2018:
If you are budgeting for F&A, State, or Trust funds, be sure to use one of the
new FAST-related ledger groups.
Even for Trust funds, select the correct Parent Budget Entry Type.
Don’t combine F&A, State, and Trust fund entries on the same budget journal or budget transfer, even though the system will let you do that.
Prior to July 1st, you’ll still use the existing F&A and State ledger groups for budget period
2018 budgeting. Those budget journals and transfers will be converted to the FAST-related
ledger groups the evening of June 30.
Next year’s Trust budgets can be entered any time after July 1.
May 17, 2017 Page 2 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
The New Ledger Groups
When creating budget journals and budget transfers in budget period 2018, you’ll
need to choose one of the new FAST ledger groups from the Ledger Group lookup:
You’ll use the FAST ledger group for expense budget transactions and the FAST_REV
ledger group for revenue budget transactions. FAST_PAR is used exclusively by the
Office of Budget Planning & Analysis (BP&A).
Parent Budget Options
After choosing the ledger group, you’ll choose the Budget Entry Type and the Parent
Budget Entry Type. No matter what type of funds you are working with, you need to
make sure the types match. While Trust funds don’t have a parent-child relationship,
the system requires you to choose a parent budget entry type because the F&A, State,
and Trust ledgers are all combined into the FAST ledger group. The Generate Parent
Budget(s) check box will be marked automatically.
Use Only One Fund Type Per Journal
Once you’ve chosen your ledger group and entry type, you’ll then enter the chartfield
strings for your budget journal or budget transfer. When you choose FAST or
FAST_REV, you can choose to do a budget journal or transfer for either F&A, State, or
Trust funds. Only work with one type of fund per budget journal or transfer. While the
system will let you combine different types of funds on your journals, journals with
different fund types will be denied since those journals have different approval routes.
For example, journals with State funds might route to BP&A, while journals with
Trust funds must be approved by Accounting Services.
The budget journal below is an example of a budget journal that will be denied by an
approver. Both lines use the new FAST_EX_BD ledger (FAST expense budget ledger),
but the first line uses a State fund (20101) and the second line uses a Trust fund
May 17, 2017 Page 3 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
(29100). The system lets you successfully budget pre-check and submit this journal,
but each of these chartfield strings has a different approval route. The journal will be
denied and you’ll need to create two separate budget journals, one for the State
budget line and one for the Trust budget line.
Changes to State Budgeting Accounts
As part of simplifying the way we budget with State funds in ConnectCarolina, nine accounts
are being removed as budget rollups. Consolidating these accounts will simplify budgeting
because there are nine fewer accounts on which you need to budget. The chart below shows
the account that is currently being used for budget period 2017 and the account you will use
for budgeting for budget period 2018 onward. The accounts in the left column will be invalid
on July 1, 2017.

Budgets Overview Inquiry in ConnectCarolina
The Budgets Overview Inquiry in ConnectCarolina has a few changes you need to be aware of
when running inquires for budget period 2018. You can refer to the Campus Budgets Student
Guide found on ccinfo.unc.edu for detailed instructions on running this inquiry, but if you’re
already familiar with it, you can just read on to see what’s changed for budget period 2018.
When you run a Budgets Overview Inquiry, the first thing you choose is the Ledger Group.
This is where you will see the biggest change. In addition to seeing the previously existing
ledger groups, you will see the new FAST, FAST_PAR, and FAST_REV ledger groups.
May 17, 2017 Page 4 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
The old F&A, State, and Trust ledger groups are still there because you’ll need them for
inquiries on budget period 2017 and previous years. You’ll use the new FAST-related ledger
groups for your F&A, State, and, Trust budget period 2018 inquiries. You’ll use the new FAST
ledger group for expense budget inquires. For revenue inquiries, you’ll use the FAST_REV
ledger group. If you are an MOU lead or otherwise need to look at the parent budgets for your
school or division, you’ll use the FAST_PAR ledger group.
Because the new ledgers combine State, F&A, and Trust, you’ll need to pay close attention to
the chartfield criteria you use to limit your results. For example, if you choose the FAST
ledger group and filter just on your department number, you’ll get a listing of all the F&A,
State, and Trust chartfield strings for your department. However, if you use your department
number and enter 201% in the Fund field, the system will only bring back Academic Affairs-
related State transactions for your department. The % symbol is a wildcard character, so in
this example the system returns any funds that begin with 201.
May 17, 2017 Page 5 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
It’s strongly recommended that you create brand new inquiries to use with the FAST-related
ledger groups. You can keep your old ones for historical inquiries, when you need to review
budgets from last year or earlier.
Program and Cost Code Budgets
For budget period 2018, the Available Budget for program and cost codes will not
reflect the pre-encumbrances, encumbrances, or expenses against that budget.
Therefore, your available budgets will be incomplete for these using Budgets
Overview.
In the example below, we ran a Budgets Overview inquiry for program C1302. The
first picture shows what the results look like today and the second picture shows what
they’ll look like beginning with budget period 2018.
Old Way
May 17, 2017 Page 6 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
In order to get an accurate budget balance, as well as see the relevant pre-
encumbrances, encumbrances, expenses, and revenues you’ll need to use the
Program/Cost Code tabs in InfoPorte.
Using a Ledger Inquiry Set
You can still compare related budgets using a ledger inquiry set, such as comparing a
Trust expense budget side-by-side with a Trust revenue budget. In the example below,
we created an inquiry set called Trust 2018 and we’ve chosen the FAST expense
budget ledger (FAST_EX_BD), the FAST expense ledger (FAST_EX_EX), the FAST
revenue budget ledger (FAST_RV_BD), and the FAST recognized revenue ledger
(FAST_RV_RE). This lets us compare our Trust expense budgets and expenses along
with our Trust revenue budgets and recognized revenue.
Now when we run our Budgets Overview inquiry, we’ll use the new TRUST_2018
ledger inquiry set we created instead of a ledger group:
Since the FAST ledgers we added to our inquiry set encompass F&A, State, and Trust,
we’ll need to enter additional criteria to limit our results to just Trusts as in the
example below:
New Way
May 17, 2017 Page 7 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
Remember that the % symbol is a wildcard character, so the system returns budget
information for all of department 318300’s Trust funds that begin with 292. For more
information on budget inquires and ledger inquiry sets, see the Campus Budgets
Student Guide found on ccinfo.unc.edu.
Changes in InfoPorte
You won’t notice that much of a difference in InfoPorte. The budget period 2018 budget
changes affect InfoPorte just like ConnectCarolina, but they are less visible.
Changes to the Main Ledgers and Parent Ledgers Tabs
Starting with budget period 2018, the field where you select the type of funds you
want to see will be labeled “Fund Type” instead of “Ledger” on the Main Ledgers and
Parent Ledgers tabs.
May 17, 2017 Page 8 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
The options in the field are the same and you’ll still choose F&A, State, or Trust on the
Main Ledgers tab. On the Parent Ledgers tab, you’ll still choose F&A or State. Trust is
not included on the Parent Ledgers tab because Trusts don’t have a parent-child
relationship.
When you run a report for budget period 2018, you’ll see the new FAST ledger group
referenced in the chartfield strings, instead of F&A, State, or Trust. Those with a good
familiarity of chartfield strings can look to the fund code of the string and identify the
type of fund by the first three digits. In the example below, you can tell that this
chartfield string is for State funds because the fund code begins with “201.”
Changes on the Transactions Tab
On the Transactions tab, the Ledger field has been renamed Fund Type as well.
Additionally, the fund types have been re-ordered and the ledger names are easier to
understand. Instead of having to remember that STAT_EX_PR is the pre-
encumbrance ledger, the system now displays State - Pre-Encumb.
May 17, 2017 Page 9 of 9
Ledger Group Changes for Budget Period 2018
When you run a report for budget period 2018, you’ll see the new FAST ledger
referenced in the Ledger column, instead of F&A, State, or Trust.
For historical inquiries into budget period 2017 and previous periods, you’ll see the
old ledger groups in the results. In the example below, STAT in the ledger column
tells you that you are looking at a State ledger.
Program/Cost Code Tab Changes
The filters on the Program/Cost Code tabs haven’t changed, but the Expenses column
on the reports has been renamed Revenue/Expenses, because these reports now
include revenue. When looking at accounts on your report that begin with a “5” you
are looking at expenses. When looking at accounts that begin with a “4” then you are
looking at revenue.

Please note, 1) final examinations (or a final evaluation) are mandatory for allundergraduate courses and 2) courses fulfilling General Education requirements must include atleast 10 pages of written work, excluding in-class examinations. The Criteria Document is acomprehensive guide to the Making Connections curriculum.
Student Services Staff Meetings. Mark your calendar! The College of Arts and Sciences holdsa meeting for student services coordinators three times per year on the second Wednesday ofAugust, December, and April, at 10:30am in Toy Lounge. An agenda is sent to the manager’slistserv approximately one week before the meeting, with a request that it be forwarded tostudent services coordinators. Agendas and minutes from past meetings are posted on theStudent Services Staff page on the OUC Web site.
