3. Year-End Considerations
The Banner G# captures the complete financial status of an award so viewing at the index or fund level may not give you the complete financial status.
Detail accessible in FRIGITD
To view at fund level select ‘Fund’
To view by agency categories select ‘Sponsor Account Codes’

4. Year-End Considerations
ELRs must be initiated by June 23 to allow for full approval by June 30.
If ELRs are not completely approved by noon on the last day of close they will be erased and will need to be resubmitted with a FY18 date.
Labor transfers should be done within 90 days

5. Year-End Considerations
Departments should continuously review any accounts receivable balances older than 120 days and support SPA in collection efforts to avoid the write-off of receivables at year-end.

6. Year-End Considerations
Direct Pay Requests for subcontracts (EQ #s) are not processed between 1st and final close.
SPA will submit to Accounts Payable immediately after final close when encumbrances have rolled over.
Budget mods for subcontracts (EQ #s) will not be processed between 1st and final close.
SPA will process immediately after final close.

7. Year-End Considerations
Gift Funds cannot have a deficit fund balance at FYE.
Common YE items that can cause a deficit:
Pcard purchases will post before 2nd close.
ELRs will post by 1st close.
Lag payroll will post after 2nd close.

8. Final Invoices at FYE
State of New Mexico and a few other agencies have a quicker than normal turnaround time for final invoices.
Be prepared to submit a Report of Final Expenses (RFE) to SPA to ensure that all allowable expenses are billed by the invoice due date.
Without an RFE and backup documentation of pending charges, SPA will invoice the agency based on Banner amounts.

9. Report of Final Expenses
The RFE is used by the departments to report final expenses on sponsored awards and should list all allowable expenses, even if they are not yet in Banner.
SPA must receive the RFE with adequate time to review all expenses prior to the invoice deadline.

10. Report of Final Expenses
The RFE is due to SPA halfway between the award end date and the invoice due date.
If the final invoice is due July 30, the RFE is due to SPA by July 15.
For final invoices due on or before the award end date, RFE is due to SPA 7 days before the invoice due date.
If the final invoice is due June 30, the RFE is due to SPA by June 23.
