Enhanced Financials DataMart released October 24th
Effective Monday, October 24th, 2005, the Financials DataMart has been enhanced to include the addition of Budget and Encumbrance data. In addition to the Actuals data that DataMart has always reported, you are now able to view budget and encumbrance transactions, as well as obtain disbursement data from the legacy FLAIR system.
Also effective Monday, the Office of Research and Commercialization has updated its web portal http://www.research.ucf.edu to reflect the changes on DataMart, including the report of encumbrances for all funded research projects and drill down functionality to track requisitions, purchase orders, and vouchers.
