Creating a Chart of Accounts is the first step. This customized coding structure is comprised of Task, Option and Project (TOP) codes. Once a department creates a Chart of Accounts, Project Cost Accounting will allow that department the ability to maintain its entire coding structure in FIN.

(T)ask Code

  • Three-character code that can have any combination of UPPERCASE letters and numbers
  • Designed to be independent of the project and option codes
  • Only one level of Task codes may be entered and maintained in FIN

(O)ption Code

  • Three-character code that can have any combination of UPPERCASE letters and numbers
  • Designed to be independent of the project and task codes
  • Only one level of Option codes may be entered and maintained in FIN

(P)roject Code

  • Six-character code that can have any combination of UPPERCASE letters and numbers
  • Designed to be independent of the task and option codes
  • There are six hierarchical levels of projects available in FIN
  • Your department may enter from one to six levels of project codes, however, only the lowest level code as established in FIN can be attached to transactions.
  • Each higher level in the hierarchy is intended for use on departmental systems when summarizing all lower level projects associated with that higher level project.
