FOPP
The FOPP, which stands for Fund, Organization,Ìý±Êrogram or Project, serves as a central element of the Finance System accounting structure.
This fund/org/program or fund/org/project combination describes a functional unit and activity that has been established for a specific purpose within the university. Each FOPP has a designated individual, the fiscal principal, who holds responsibility for overseeing the transaction activity and financial health of the FOPP. FOPPS are used to maintain the financial records of a unit or activity within the university.
A FOPPÌýisÌýtypically a 12 or 14 digit number that includes a two-digit fund code, a five-digit organization code, and a five-digit program code or a seven-digit project code. A FOPP can contain a program or a project, but not both.

Speedtype
The Finance System also uses eight-digit speedtypes. Speedtypes are used to facilitate fund, organization, program/project data on transactions; each speedtype represents a unique FOPP combination.Ìý
Speedtypes corresponding to the first two tablesÌýabove, are:
FOPP | Speedtype |
---|---|
10 10369 14991 | 11027532 |
