The Organization document defines the entities representing units at many different levels within the institution (for example, a department, responsibility center, campus). The document collects important identifying information about an Organization and defines its place in the organization hierarchy. Organization is an important part of the Chart of Accounts and the organization hierarchy is frequently leveraged by the KFS for use in Workflow and reporting.

Edit Plant Accounts Tab

Plant accounts record special entries related to capitalization. These fields identify the plant accounts associated with this organization and with the campus. Some types of entries use the Organization Plant Account (such as generated entries which are related to movable equipment) while others use the Campus Plant Account (such as generated entries which are related to non-movable equipment). This section is completed in the Organization Of Interest system before the document is sent through the interface to KFS.  However, these fields can only be modified by the members of the KFS-SYS Chart Manager or KFS-SYS Plant Fund Accountant roles.
