FISCAL MANAGEMENT OPERATIONS GUIDE

Fiscal Accountability

Being responsible for University funds and resources is a serious obligation. By acceptance of the role, an account manager accepts the responsibility for planning and expenditures to carry out the operations of the account for the entire fiscal year and staying within the budget limits of the account. An account manager is not authorized to expend beyond the approved budget limits of the account nor may he obligate the University for any purchase of goods or services except as provided in the Handbook of Operating Procedures. The account manager is accountable for all expenditures within the account.
