The FSU Budget Office has provided the following updates:
 
1. Fiscal year 2024-2025 operating budgets have been booked in OMNI-FI for all applicable funds except E&G-carryforward. While carryforward spending will be allowed, related budgets will not be booked in OMNI until updated 2024-2025 Carryforward Spending Plans have been approved. Like last year, the Budget Office will coordinate with Division representatives and department Budget Preparers to update the spending plans. Until then, $0 budgets will be booked as needed for carryforward combinations, with resulting “exceeds budget tolerance” errors automatically overridden to facilitate carryforward spending. If you experience any “no budget exists” errors, contact the Budget Office.

2. Beginning with 2024-2025, OMNI fund 599 will no longer be budget checked at the department ID level. As a result, the budgets prepared in Adaptive Planning will not be reflected in OMNI-FI or BI. This change does not impact budget checking at the Project ID level. If additional funding is not expected, a Foundation Transfer Request Form must be submitted to correct budget errors on a Project ID. If you need assistance, contact FoundationAccounting@foundation.fsu.edu.

3. As a reminder, additional transfer budget for budgetary accounts beginning with 7801** no longer requires the use of the Non-E&G Budget Adjustment form. Budget transfer between these transfer accounts (7801**) and operating expense accounts (71**** through 76****) are no longer allowed for non-E&G funds. To request additional transfer budget, please email the Budget Office.
