New accounts are requested for a variety of circumstances:

Within the General Education Fund (Fund 0011), new accounts are established to provide documentation and tracking of new budget objectives or new strategic goals, i.e., a new program or new endeavors that require separate budgeting and tracking of expenditures.

Outside the General Education Fund, a new activity or endeavor which requires separate tracking of a cash balance, new revenue and related expenses, is the most common reason for requesting a new account.

Financial Accounting and Reporting Services establishes the majority of new accounts. To request a new account, the form with instructions,”New Account” is available from the forms repository.

New accounts for Grants and Contracts are established by Sponsored Programs when monies are received. Please contact michele.mullings-shand@uni.edu.

Charitable contributions are deposited with the UNI Foundation. For more information, please contact foundation.accounting@uni.edu.
