Amendments
Instructions
These instructions refer the submission
of budget amendments reflecting changes made after the original budget has
been approved and entered into the department's account. Changes to
the original budget will only affect the current fiscal year unless the
department specifies that the change is permanent. Budget amendment
requests can be submitted as needed. The Budget Office will comply and
submit budget amendments quarterly to the Board of Regents Central Office.
The budget for each department should be
amended to reflect the current estimate of expenditures for the fiscal year.
Departments should review their budgets on a monthly basis and can make the
necessary changes by moving funds from one category (ex. travel, operating
expenses, equipment) to another. Budget amendment request for Personal
Services has to be approved by Vice Presidents. Such changes may be made by
completing the appropriate budget amendment forms.
