Budget Transfer via SSB for Finance
With the introduction of Self-Service Banner Finance, Business Managers have the option of performing one-time transfers of discretionary budgets between their organizations and/or budget pools. The Self-Service Banner Budget Transfer Guide describes how to perform your own budget transfers.
Tableau Training and Finance Database Cubes
We also provide access to financial data through Tableau and Excel database cubes for individuals involved in monitoring budget and financial activity. Tableau reports allow users to easily interpret information visually as well as access the underlying data. The software lends itself to easily sharing information with other authorized individuals. A user guide is available here. The Excel database cubes display information from the operating ledger, transaction ledger, and other sources for your divisions. Organizational, fund, and account hierarchies have been incorporated into the file to allow you to view your financial information from a variety of perspectives. All funds and transactions are included for a user's area. For more information regarding access and training for these reporting resources, please contact, Sean Matthews at ext. 6145.
