Operating Transfers

The event types in this subset of Internal Accounting are ones used for operating transfers. Operating Transfers are defined as all types of transfers that are not considered Residual Equity Transfers. Those equity transfers are ones that are non-recurring or non-routine used to provide equity when a new fund is started or expanded. They are also used when a fund ceases operations and remaining equity has to be transferred out. Most of the remaining types of transfers to be considered are operating.

IN20: Operational Transfer With Cash Offsets - This event type is used for operating transfers when cash should be used as the offset balance sheet account for both parties because they share the same bank account.

IN23: Operational Transfer - Clearing Act Maint - This event type is used for operating transfers when clearing accounts should be used as the offset balance sheet account for both parties. IN23 is intended for use with the Clearing Account Maintenance functionality instead of IN21. Use of this event type and IN21 in the same period of time (that is, BFY Stage) is not recommended as the Clearing Account Maintenance program handles only the clearing accounts and does not move the accrued expenditures to cash expenditures. Use of the IN23 event type is intended for those BFY stages that occur after a year ends so that cash is not impacted against a prior fiscal year, however, IN23 could be used throughout the year instead of IN21 if the distinction of accrued accounts vs. cash accounts is not important for internal accounting.
