Organization Codes and Mailstops, Changes to

Requests for assigned organization code or mail-stop changes on existing grants or gift accounts (budgets beginning with prefixes 6X-XXXX or 80-XXXX) can be sent to the GCA Team assigned to your school or college or on Budget Office change request forms by FAX (Fax 543-0764) or campus mail (351122). The change should be requested by an Administrator, Fiscal Specialist or the Principal Investigator for the grant.

If the organization code change is transferring the budget to a new department, the request must come from the department currently reflected in the on-line Accounting System (FAS). There are potential Indirect Cost distribution implications that should be considered, specifically the basis for research support allocations (ie. distribution to RSA Accounts). Grant and Contract Accounting recommends that for organization code changes between departments appropriate communication take place prior to requesting the organization code change.
