Sub-Object Code

The Sub-Object document is used to define an optional part of the accounting string that allows you to create finer distinctions within a particular object code on an account. For example, your institution may have an object code for in-state travel but you would like to track travel expenses at a greater level of detail. You could create sub-object codes to reflect faculty travel, staff travel, student travel, or any other designation required.

 

Sub-object codes are specific to an account and a fiscal year and take on most of the attributes of the object code to which they report, including object code type and sub-type.
