LOST & FOUND

Finding documents lost in Approvals

Finding existing Purchase Orders especially for BANNER Buyers

WHO? WHAT? WHY? WHERE? WHEN? & HOW?

Is it possible to have balances roll at a combined activity code and pooled budget level?

Why does FGIBDST sometimes pull enormous budget figures ($84450188.55) when I first go in, before I've even had a chance to input any FOAPAL info?

I jumped into someone else's PO and completed it with all the info for an order of mine to the same vendor (error, error, all right). How was I able to complete the PO and Banner to approve it when the buyer code and funding (org code) are in conflict? Can any buyer complete and print a PO with another buyers name on it?

What is the effect of change orders on encumbrances?

How many TOEs and TOFs were input by Service Centers in Fiscal Year 97?

Tell me again what these ZZ9997 activity codes are on my unit ledgers?
