If you need to transfer funds between functions, these are called Budget Revisions.

 

The Board of Trustees must approve any Budget REVISIONS.  The Board does not approve Budget TRANSFERS.

If you need to transfer funds within a function,these are called Budget TRANSFERS and may be requested using the Skyward
Finance System. 

 

The Budget Revision form needs to be completed with the campus/department name, the person who prepared the request, the reason for the request and date.
List the account funds are coming from and the account funds are going to. These amounts should equal.

 

In special circumstances, this could be a one sided entry. If for example, a request for a new program was approved at your campus/department and the funds will come from the district level for your campus/department.

 

When completed the form should be signed by the Principal/Director and submitted to the Finance Office for approval.
