Expenditure Codes: Transfer Out

Applicability

Transfers may be made between agency/orgs with the exception of:

  1. state units—agency/orgs whose third digit of the area code ends with a 1
  2. agency units—agency/orgs whose area code is YV7
    and
  3. Sponsored and Property Fiscal Management (SPFM) units—agency/orgs whose agency code consists of three alpha characters

Policy

A transfer-out to an agency/org must be offset by a transfer-in from another agency/org for the same dollar amount. Transfer codes may only be used when processing a journal voucher (J1). When using a transfer-out expenditure code, a function code must be used. The function code consists of the agency code for the “transfer-in agency/org” plus the last digit of the org code of “transfer-in agency/org.”
For example, if funds are being transferred to agency/org WV5 1002, the function code is WV52.
