In Case You Missed It: Changes to Centrally Funded Pooled Fringe and Longevity Posting

Since pooled fringed began in September 2018, centrally funded fringes have posted to departmental accounts as an expense (object code 1100) with a budget adjustment (object code 9XXX) to offset the expense. Accounting and Financial Management and the Budget Office received feedback that this was creating negative effects to CSU’s due to increased expense and budget totals. Read the previous newsletter to learn more about this.
