Program or Project Budget

The Special Revenue Accountant creates the budget for each program or project according to the amount and regulations of the grant awarded. The funds are loaded into Frontline according to the Notice of Grant Award (NOGA). The Grantee is responsible for supervising the execution of the grant and monitoring expenditures to prevent any possible misuse of funds and for compliance with state and federal guidelines, as applicable. The Grantee must adhere to the deadlines established by the Business Office, including grant ending date, requisition cut-off, P-card cut-off, and goods receipt posting date.
