Procedure: 403-Revenue Producing Activities
Date: 05/31/02
Statement of Procedure:
The University of Wisconsin - Madison is involved, on a continuous basis, in a variety of activities that produce revenue, from outside the University, other UW-Madison departments, or other campuses within the University of Wisconsin System. This manual states policies and procedures that must be followed if your department is involved in any of these activities.
The primary focus of this manual is rate calculation and related business issues for revenue producing activities (e.g., "minor auxiliaries") other than major auxiliary enterprises at UW-Madison. Major auxiliaries must consider specific UW System policies and procedures, campus practices, and their own unique missions and characteristics when engaging in the sale of goods and services and establishing rates. Major auxiliaries include: University Housing; Wisconsin Union; Transportation Services-Parking, Bus and Fleet; Recreational Sports; University Health Services; UW Press-Books; and selected Dean of Students operations.
