A project account will be established by the DGCA after a sponsored agreement has been reviewed and it has been determined that there is a need or requirement to separately account for:
a task;
a portion of the expenditures that will be administered and be the responsibility of another project director, university campus, department or unit (different EBRC);
supplements or funded portions of a sponsored agreement that have differing terms and conditions for the expenditure of funds;
funded award periods that require a "formal closeout" and / or carry forward approval of the sponsor to the next award period.
The project account that is established will be linked with the major / parent account for that award. The attributes required for the establishment of the project account should be within the agreement file. However, the DGCA manager responsible for the establishment of these types of account(s) may find it necessary to obtain additional information from the departmental staff or the PI who initially received this award before the project account can be established. Once established, for specific information regarding the expenditure of funds and / or post award administration of a specific project account, please refer to your DGCA accountant.
