FNRIFOP - Hierarchies and Index Lookup
  • Elements - Fund, Organization, Program, and Activity (FOPA).

Before submitting an index termination request, run this report (select Report Type: Active Distributions) to determine whether any employees are being paid from this index. If so, you can correct this before submitting the term request. For "shared" employees, you may not be able to submit labor redistribution requests when salary needs to be corrected - the Hiring Org column on this report shows the employee's hiring org. This can help you determine who to contact in order to request assistance with processing labor redistributions affecting your index.
FNRMBTA - Main and Branch Transfers Allocation
  • You enter the index you will be transferring or allocating funds from "index funds are coming from" and the index that will be receiving the funds "Index funds are going to".  This report shows you the rule class and account codes to use when transferring budget and actual funds.
  • Run this report before processing transfers or allocations to ensure than you are using the correct rule class and account codes.  It also provides notes on Budget Office requirements for the description - this report is very useful in helping you enter everything correctly so that your JV meets requirements and will not be rejected for rule class and/or account code errors.

  • This can be used to research charges that post to your index.  If you see an unknown charge in Banner, you can look it up using this report to view more information on it.  If your department has multiple PCard holders, this report is very handy in identifying the person who placed a charge so that you know who to follow up with if you need more information on a charge.  Note that when reporting by Org, hierarchy is not included so you must select the exact org that the PCard charges fall under (e.g. you may need to search for the Level 6 org even if you're used to searching for Level 5).
FMRFAQR - Finance Approval Queue Inquiry Report
  • This report is specific to Banner Finance Approval Queues; users must have Banner Finance access to be an approver.
  • Provides you with a list of department approval queue IDs, queue limits and approvers.

FOGOPER - Operating Ledger Guided Ad Hoc (Data Extract)
  • Guided ad hoc version of the FOROLDS Summary report.
  • If you are able to get everything you need from the published FOROLDS report, use that instead.  If you want more information than what is available in FOROLDS (e.g. comparing multiple fiscal years, etc.), use FOGOPER.  You only need to click through the tabs where you want to add filters.  Choosing HTML Active Report allows you to do some simple manipulations of the data for quick comparisons; for more detailed manipulations, recommended to output to Excel and use Pivot Tables for comparison.  A tutorial on Pivot Tables can be found on Lynda (log in with your NetID and password).

FNGSLBE - Salary Labor Benefits and Encumbrance Guided Ad Hoc (Data Extract)
  •  Guided ad hoc version of the FNRSLBE report.

Monitoring Restricted Indices (Contracts & Grants) - These reports can assist you with tasks specific to Contracts & Grants

FRRCGES - Contract and Grant Ledger Executive Summary
  • Displays a high-level overview for your grant organization.
  • Very useful in terms of getting a "big picture" of the restricted indices for your organization.  This report can be very useful in helping you monitor the spending rate on your organization's awards (i.e., burn rate).  It displays percent of budget used and percent of time used for each index.  This can help you in assisting your PIs in managing their expenditures to ensure that they are able to complete their research according to budget.
FORFAPI - F&A Generated by PI
  • Displays the total F&A generated by your organization or by PI.
  • Recently added the ability to query by PI.  Note that this is by the Principal Investigator - if your faculty member is a co-PI, indices will not be reflected on his/her report.  Many departments return a portion of F&A generated to the PI; this report provides you with the starting point for your calculations (the percentage distributed to the Colleges, the percentage of that distributed to your department, and your department's percentage distributed to PIs will then need to factor into your calculations).  Can also be useful as an indicator of faculty performance in terms of how much F&A is being generated by individual faculty members.
FRGGR90 - Closeout Workflow for Funds Ending on Contracts and Grants
  • Quickly check the closeout status on your awards.
  • You can only run this for Main or HSC Campuses, so it is highly recommended that you choose to display ORG CODE when running this report.  If you output to HTML Active Report, you can then filter based on your org code.  Choosing AGING will help you prioritize which closeout tasks to tackle first, as you'll be able to quickly tell which grants have ended earliest.  A negative number in the AGING column means that the budget period end date has not yet passed.  A positive number reflects the number of days that have passed since the budget period end date.  STAGE NAME will show the current status of the closeout.  When stage name includes the word "Dept" such as stage 1, 3a, 3b, 5b or 8 does; those awards should be in department's workflow queue and department needs to take action. 
FRRGLDS - Grant Ledger Detail and Summary
