Error Certification Tab

 

This tab facilitates collecting information when an expense transfer exceeds the number of fiscal periods specified in parameter DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_FISCAL_PERIODS_ERROR_CERTIFICATION_TAB_REQUIRED.

 

Expense transfers that trigger this parameter will also require that the Fiscal Officer or delegate is required to acknowledge the following statement:

 

I hereby certify that these expenses were incurred for the goals, objectives, and benefit of grant/contract, and that the expenditure transfer is correct and proper.  In the event of a subsequent audit disallowance of this expense transfer for any reason, the Principal Investigator/Fiscal Officer and Department Head agree to be jointly responsible for handling this expense in a manner which is consistent with the institution’s policy.
