1. Introducing the FOAPAL
Banner Financial Information System
Uses codes for:
Fund
Organization
Account
Program
Activity
and Location

2. Two Types of FOAPAL Forms
Validation Forms – FTVxxxx
These are query forms that enable you to view a full list (or a specific group) of each type of FOAPAL code.
The same forms are also used as search forms from within many of the document creation forms.
Maintenance Forms – FTMxxxx
These are data entry forms that can be queried to see more detail about each code.

3. FOAPAL Validation Forms - FTVxxxx
The FOAPAL query forms are:
FTVFUND – Fund Code Validation
FTVORGN – Organization Code Validation
FTVACCT – Account Code Validation
FTVPROG – Program Code Validation
FTVACTV – Activity Code Validation
FTVLOCN – Location Code Validation

4. FOAPAL Maintenance Forms - FTMxxxx
The FTMxxxx maintenance forms can be queried to display additional information about the code:
FTMFUND – Fund Code Maintenance
FTMORGN – Organization Code Maintenance
FTMACCT – Account Code Maintenance
FTMPROG – Program Code Maintenance
FTMACTV – Activity Code Maintenance
FTMLOCN – Location Code Maintenance

5. Index Form - FTMACCI
The Index code is not a FOAPAL element - it points to a Fund, Org, and Program combination.
The FTMACCI form is a maintenance and query form for Index codes used to find the FOP (and sometimes L) elements that are associated to an Index code.
FTMACCI can also be used to find the Indexes that point to any FOP element.

6. Introduction - Code Lists
When you return to this Introduction topic, you will find a row of links that are labeled:
Fund, Organization, Account, Program, Activity, Location, and Index.
Each one will open a list of the OSU codes in a new browser window.
You may want to have the related document open as you work with each FOAPAL element topic.
