Since the University implemented Oracle Financials Cloud (OFC) in 2016, campus’ primary method for tracking project-related expenditures has been the Account Analysis Report (AAR) from the OFC General Ledger (GL). While the AAR has provided the ability to track project expenditures in conjunction with macro-enabled spreadsheets and human intervention, it has numerous limitations as compared to OFC’s “Awards Overview,” and “Project Costs” and “Project Commitments” functionality (sometimes collectively referred to as the OFC Project Portfolio Management (PPM) module). The information below explains why campus should now use PPM for sponsored project financial management activities.
