201.SCH: PJTD Revenue & Expense Totals for G&C/URF
Documentation :|: BEN Balances Report Documentation :|: Quick View
* Return to Quick View List
Last Updated: 9/10/06
The 201.SCH report provides a project-to-date summary of the
selected accounts, showing revenue and expense totals for Sponsored
Programs and the URF fund, and cannot be used to report on any other
types of fund. The 201.SCH is a roll-up companion to the 211.SCH
report, which provides the full-outline budget format. The 201.SCH
report provides a summary of current period and project-to-date
revenue and expense activity.
The report provides revenue & expense budget, actual,
encumbrance and budget variance balances. Period-to-date actuals,
year-to-date, and project-to-date balances are included. Percentages
are provided to compare project actuals to budget amounts and to
compare project-to-date actuals plus encumbrances to the project
budget.
Several report options are provided as parameters to allow users
to select one or both Fund Groups for the report.
The report uses a matrix format. The balances are used to create
the columns and are read from left to right. The rows represent the
totals of all the object codes associated with the balances. The
sort order is controlled by a combination of page breaks and report
templates. Specific information regarding page breaks, sort order
and templates for this report is described below.
Report Options:
The report options determine the page break, the first level of sort
order, and the level of aggregation for the report.
For the Sponsored Program fund group, the 201.SCH offers four
different report options. You may choose to see sponsored program
funds summarized:
1 by CNAC and Fund Group (CNAC/FG),
2 by CNAC, Fund Group and Organization (CNAC/FG/ORG),
3 by CNAC, Fund Group and FUND (CNAC/FG/FUND),
4 by CNAC, Fund Group, Organization and Fund (CNAC/FG/ORG/FUND),
or N Not Selected.
For the University Research Foundation fund, the 201.SCH offers
two different break options. You may choose to see the URF fund
summarized
8 by CNAC and Fund (CNAC/FUND),
9 by CNAC, Fund, Organization and CREF(CNAC/FUND/ORG/CREF),
or N Not Selected.
All page-break combinations will be presented in ascending order,
that is, the lowest combination of values to the highest.
Report Template:
This report uses templates to determine the fund groups and the
rows. Funds are aggregated into fund groups based on the Revised
Responsibility Center Management (RCM). For more information on how
the fund groups are defined, see
http://www.budget.upenn.edu/dlDocs/fund_aggregations.pdf
Row templates are used to create the rows on the report. The row
template determines the order of the rows (e.g., revenue followed by
expense, salaries followed by employee benefit expense), the group
of object codes to be included in each labeled row (e.g., Travel
& Entertainment includes 520x and 521x), and the level of
sub-totaling.
Template 5C, which is a highly summarized version of
Template 1C,
is used to define the rows. In this report, balances are NOT
reported down to the object code level. Instead, each row contains
the sum of the balances for all of the object codes included in that
row. Only the revenue and expense totals and the section on the
bottom are included in this report. For more information on the row
templates used in this report, see
http://www.finance.upenn.edu/ben/benfin/documentation/reportdoc/templates/temp5.shtml
Note that this report uses Template 5C to produce reports
exclusively for Grants and Contracts and URFs. Template
5C (and 1C) treats Overhead on Sponsored Programs (i.e.,
Grant & Contract Overhead Charges) as an expense,
whereas Template 5A (and 1A), which is used in most
other BEN reports, treats this overhead as a
contra-revenue, making this a reconciling item when
comparing reports.
Parameters:
-
Center LOW/HIGH (Required) Enter the low/high values for the
Responsibility Center.
-
NAC LOW/HIGH: (Required) Enter the low/high values for the
Net Asset Class. All three Net Asset Classes are supported on this
report. To receive a separate report for each of the three net
asset classes, specify 0 as the low value and 2 as the high value.
In addition, two special “summary” NAC values are also
supported:
T : When this NAC value is specified, the
information on the report will be consolidated across all three
net asset classes for the specified school or center. S :
When this NAC value is specified, the information on the report
will be consolidated across the unrestricted and temporarily
restricted net asset classes only (NAC ‘0' plus NAC ‘1').
-
ORG LOW/HIGH: (Required) Enter the Low/High values for the
ORGs to be included for the report; to report on all ORGs within a
school or center, specify the lowest ORG to the highest ORG in
that school/center.
-
This report can be produced for either or both of the shaded
areas shown below by selecting the appropriate report option.

BREAK BY ORG PARENT INSTEAD OF ORG? (Y/N). To use org
parent processing, specify a parent org for the org low value,
choose report option 2, 4,or 9, and choose Y here. For more
information on org parent processing, see
http://www.budget.upenn.edu/rcm/org_parent.shtml
-
ACTIVE ONLY?: (Y/N))
Y: The report will include only those account combinations which are currently “active” ; all “inactive” combinations will be excluded.
N: The report will include both “active” and “inactive” combinations.‘N’ is the default value.
If you choose Yes, a common definition
is used to determine whether the account is “active” or “inactive”
(see Section 1.4, ACTIVE vs. EXPIRED ACCOUNTS). Since this
definition does not use the grant start and end dates, some grants
that have already ended may be included on the reports. While
screening out inactive grants is useful when running the 10x Grant
reports, it's normally not necessary or appropriate when running
this report.
Report Heading:
The report heading includes the following information:
-
REPORT BREAK Indicates the chart of accounts segments used
to create the report break, depending on which option was chosen.
The next line will show the chart of accounts values used for this
particular part of the report. The codes used for fund groups, sub
groups, and categories are shown on
http://www.budget.upenn.edu/dlDocs/fund_aggregations.pdf
-
ACCOUNTING PERIOD Indicates the accounting period for which
information is being reported. Accounting period is specified as a
parameter when the report is requested.
-
DESCRIPTION The alphabetic descriptions associated with
report break codes.
Report Columns:
From left to right, the report columns will provide the following balances:
-
PJTD BUDGET: The balance in this column is the project-to-date
operating budget. The amount reported is the sum of all budget
activity from the beginning of the project up through the
specified accounting period. Any changes to the operating budget
within the accounting period being reported will also be reflected
in this balance.
-
CURRENT MONTH ACTUALS: The balance in this column will contain
the period-to-date actuals for the specified accounting period.
-
FYTD ACTUALS: The balance in this column will contain
fiscal-year-to-date actuals, that is, the total activity from the
beginning of the fiscal year up to and including the specified
accounting period.
-
PJTD ACTUALS: The balance in this column will contain
project-to-date actuals, that is, the total activity from the
beginning of the project up to and including the specified
accounting period.
-
% ACTUAL TO BUDGET: The data in this column is the PJTD Actuals
divided by the amount in the PJTD Budget, stated as a percentage.
-
ENCUMBRANCES: The balances in this column represent all
outstanding encumbrances up to and including the specified
accounting period.
-
% ACT/ENC TO BUDGET: The data in the column reflects the sum of
the amounts in the PJTD Actuals and Encumbrance columns, divided
by the amount in the PJTD Budget column, stated as a percentage.
-
BUDGET BALANCE AVAILABLE: A calculated column that represents
the amount of project budget dollars that have not been spent or
encumbered. The column is calculated as follows:
PJTD BUDGET - (PJTD ACTUALS + ENCUMBRANCES)
Section At The Bottom:
On the 201.SCH and 211.SCH reports, the cash position section at
the bottom of the report is populated for all funds, and for all
break options, regardless of the BC. In the Fiscal Year To Date
column, the "Net(Surplus)/Deficit" and the "Cash Effect
of Other Activity" are added to the "Prior-Year Cash
Position (Surplus)/Deficit" to provide the "Cumulative
Cash Position (Surplus)/Deficit." In the Project To Date columns, the
"Net(Surplus)/Deficit" and the "Cash Effect of Other
Activity" are added together. Since this is the project
to date balance, there is no "Prior-Year Cash Position
(Surplus)/Deficit" to be added in: it is already the
"Cumulative Cash Position (Surplus)/Deficit."
In contrast, the 10x.ORG reports suppress the prior-year cash
position in certain situations. Therefore, the section at the bottom
will not be the same for 10x and 2xx reports run for the same orgs
and funds.
Last Page Of The Report:
On the last page of every report additional pieces of
important information are provided. We recommend that you keep this
parameters page with the report to document what the report includes.
-
REPORT PARAMETERS The parameters used to request the report
are printed on the last page as confirmation of what was
requested. If the account combinations returned to you in the
report are not what you expected, the report parameters list is a
useful first place to start. At a minimum, you can verify the
range of values you provided at the time you submitted the request.
-
REPORT BREAK - RESOLVED PARAMETERS The list provided here
represents the list of values within the range you provided as
Report Parameters that passed security verification. When a report
is submitted, ORGanization parameters that were provided are
compared against your BEN security profile. All ORGanizations in
the range that match your profile will be returned to you in the report.
This is a good second place to look if you did not get the
results you expected. Compare the list of ORGanizations in this
list against the parameter range you provided. If an ORGanization
is missing, chances are it does not exist in your security profile.
-
ORG PARENT OVERLAP DIAGNOSTIC If you used org parent
processing in this report, a third section will appear that shows
the orgs that were included in each parent, and whether any of the
underlying orgs were included in more than one parent in this
report. For advice on what to do if you have overlaps, see
http://www.budget.upenn.edu/rcm/org_parent.shtml
