Coláiste na Tríonóide Trinity College 10 Financial Coding Design Process Overall Structure agreed during the design workshops (Nov 2012) o This identified the Number & Length Of Segments Conference Room Pilot (CRP) Sessions achieved greater clarity around reporting levels required for o Statutory Reporting o Management Reporting List of Values for each segment refined and mapped to existing codes where possible Final List of Values published to FIS website during the first week in September

11. Coláiste na Tríonóide Trinity College 11 Financial Coding Design Principles Opening Positions & prior year comparators need to be migrated into a sensible location so that consistent management reporting can be maintained from go-live Interfaced data requires a clear link between old & new codes e.g. any cost centres with Payroll charges need to exist in the new structure Management Reporting – Need to maintain the ability to provide the current level of granularity of reporting START Structure - Cost Centre hierarchy reflects the proposed START structure

12. Coláiste na Tríonóide Trinity College GL Coding Segment 1 - Company This segment identifies the legal entity that a transaction relates to List of Values: – 10 Trinity College – 20 Ghala Limited – 30 Benefactions For the majority of transactions this will default to 10 for Trinity College 12

13. Coláiste na Tríonóide Trinity College GL Coding Segment 2 – Cost Centre This segment identifies the operating unit the that the transactions relate to e.g. school, discipline, service or support area Segment 2 is equivalent to the old Element 2 The Parent/child structure allows a hierarchy to be built for greater flexibility in reporting 13

15. Coláiste na Tríonóide Trinity College GL Coding Segment 3 - Activity 15 Segment 3 is equivalent to the old Element 3 for non Research Accounts. All active Element 3 codes have been mapped to new Activity Codes Seven digit code starting with 9 e.g. Default value 0000000 where no Activity is required The hierarchy structure allows Activities to be grouped into: o Self Financing Courses o Self Financing Activities o Other Sub Activities o Etc…

16. Coláiste na Tríonóide Trinity College GL Coding Segment 4 – Sample Hierarchy Segment 4 has no equivalent Element code in CODA This segment identifies the Funding Source for particular transactions, it will be used in connection with Income and Payroll transactions only. It is not intended that Non Pay transactions be assigned a Source of Funds value at go live. The hierarchy structure allows funding sources to be grouped into Exchequer/ Non-Exchequer etc. for reporting 16

18. Coláiste na Tríonóide Trinity College GL Coding Segment 5 – Expense Code 18 Segment 5 is equivalent to the old Element 1 codes This segment identifies the type of Income or Expenditure for the transaction Not all Element 1 codes have been directly replicated in Segment 5 codes. In some cases more detail will be required e.g. Travel & Subsistence has been broken down into several new codes to allow for more detailed reporting
