Budget Query Parameters

This screen is the parameters screen which will further define the data that is to be retrieved.

Required	Field of Data	Description
X	Fiscal Year	Represents the University's fiscal year from June 1 to May 31. For example "2007" relates to the year starting June 1, 2006 and ending May 31, 2007. Note: Information in Xavier's Finance Self Service System begins with Fiscal Year 2005. Therefore, no information for Fiscal Years prior to 2005 will be available on the system.
X	Fiscal Period	The number of the fiscal month you wish to query. It is recommended that you select period 14 to view all transactions for the current fiscal year. Note: The university fiscal year starts June (Not January) therefore if you want to query the month of April, you would enter "11" in this field (not "05"). All transactions before and during the period will be included. Queries cannot be generated for a single month. Also period 14 is the last period used to close the fiscal year. So when you query on previous fiscal years for year end totals be sure to select fiscal period 14. Click here for more information on Fiscal Periods.
