Changes to Cost Transfer Request (Non-Salary) Non-Grant Policy, Form, and Form Instructions

Accounting Services has updated the policy, form, and form instructions associated with the Cost Transfer Request (Non-Salary) Non-Grant. A new 'How-To' called, How To complete Cost Transfer Request (Non-Salary) Non-Grant--any fund except 133 and 144, has also been developed. These changes are the result of work done by an Administrative Process Redesign (APR) project designed to decrease the time from initiation of a Cost Transfer Request (Non-Salary) Non-Grant to the time the transaction appears in WISDM. This change does not affect grant-related and salary-related policies, procedures, and forms.
