Position Funding Tab

The Position Funding tab allows you to assign the funding accounting line to the position. Generally, for existing lines, you simply enter the request amount. This amount represents the portion of the employee's annual salary that is to be paid out of an account, sub-account, object, and sub-object for the particular position.

The leave request code and/or reason code does not affect the calculated amount. Reason codes are used only when a salary needs to be tagged to allow inclusion/exclusion in salary statistics reports or analysis. Leaves request codes are used to indicate that an employee will be on a leave of absence during the fiscal year being budgeted.

Unlike the Salary Setting by Incumbent screen, on the Salary Setting by Position screen the object code is already assigned to the funding line.
