Budget Transfers

To obtain the Budget Transfer form please go to the Finance Division Forms & Manuals web page by following this link: http://www.finance.ohiou.edu/forms. The form should be completed, authorized by the planning unit head, and forwarded to the Budget Administration Office.

Below are some reminders that department should keep in mind when doing budget transfers:

  • Departments must have approval signatures by the department Budget Unit Manager when requesting a budget transfer.
  • Activity in Budget Carryforward Funds (2200, 2500, 2600) is limited to budget reductions only - departments cannot transfer into these Funds.
  • The Grants and Contracts Accounting Office cannot do budget transfers from a grant or contract. Only actual expenditures can be transferred.
  • Budget transfers can be made to a grant or contract as OU matching funds.
