The Goldlink Chart of Accounts consists of five basic elements – Chart, Fund, Organization (Org), Program and Account. ~ FOAPAL – Most only use first four, FOAP, along with Chart.
Chart Codes
differentiate between University funding (
E) and funds for the ETSU Foundation (
F).
Using these codes is critical in all
paperwork and electronic transactions.
Fund Codes – Six (6) digit
numbers that indicate the source of funding: Unrestricted
and Restricted.
Unrestricted Funds – State
appropriated funds for ETSU operations for 4 units
