There are now checkboxes to indicate whether a SmartKey is associated with a sponsored project. If you are transferring charges to or from a sponsored project, please check these boxes to indicate the associated project. This change relates to the paper RST form only. You will continue to make RSTs through the ERS (effort) system if there is an effort form available.
This change was made to assist with correct routing through the Office of Grant & Contract Accounting (OGCA). when an RST form arrives in OGCA, how it is routed depends on whether a sponsored project is involved. If a sponsored project is involved in the transfer, an OGCA accountant must review the RST and approve it before it is processed. If there is no sponsored project on the RST, the form can be directly input into the labor distribution system.
