Overview of FY19 Forecast and FY20 Operating Budget

1 Data Sources

We copied the FY19 Operating Budget Final version to both the FY19 Forecast Initial version and FY20 Operating Budget:

  • FY19 Forecast and FY20 Operating Budget Initial and are available for reporting

  • FY19 Forecast and FY20 Operating Budget Working are available for editing (both CalPlan and HCP) and reporting

Read below for more details, including Actuals, Beginning Balance Loads, and how FY19 HCP data was copied to FY20.

2 Actualized Forecast

With the Actualized Forecast process at the close of each month, we overwrite the Forecast values with Actuals data from BFS for all accounts: non-compensation accounts in CalPlan and compensation accounts in HCP.

The closed months (July 2018 to August 2018) of the FY19 Forecast Working now reflect actual data.   

3 HCP copy from FY19 to FY20

  • HCP data for FY19 Forecast Initial version is identical to FY19 Operating Budget Final version.

  • HCP data for FY19 Forecast Working version includes the following:

    • Actualized July and August periods updated GAEL and fee remission rates have been applied.

    • Some corrections were made to positions that should have been pooled - but were not.  DFLs affected by this are receiving individualized emails. (See below)

  • HCP data for FY20 Operating Budget Working version was created in the following manner:

    • For individual and new/to-be-hired employees, the data in the month of June 2018 for monthly pay rate and distributions were copied to all periods of FY20.  Merit increases for FY20 were applied as follows:

      • Academic employee monthly pay rate was increased by 3% starting in July

      • Non-academic staff employee monthly pay rate July to September periods do not have the salary increase, the October period reflects a 12% increase  (because the increase is usually retroactive); and the following months are increased by 3%

    • For pooled positions,

      • FY19 Operating Budget data was copied over to FY20 so it retains the same seasonality

      • FY19 monthly pay rate for pooled employees has been increased by 3% to seed planned FY20 salaries with the 3% merit. This increase is spread evenly in all months in FY20.

    • Dept ID adjustments were not copied from FY19 to FY20

  • Changes were made to the pooled position job code list, mostly adding more adjunct and visiting professor job codes so that they will be planned as pooled positions and changing a small number of health professional job codes so they will be planned as individual employees. See below for details.

  • Recommended action: Planners will need to check to make sure the copied data do not result in overplanned employees in the FY2019-20 Operating Budget (for example, if an employee was meant to end employment in June 2019, they have been extended into the following budget year with this process.)

  • GAEL and fee remission rates have been updated for FY19 and FY20 in CalPlanning (rates are available below).  

  • FY19 and FY20 CBR rates have not been approved by the Federal Government, and thus no changes have been applied.  Once we have approved rates, we will update these in a future release.

4 FY19 Beginning Balance Details

Beginning Balances reported in CalPlan and CalRptg contain data seeded from BFS FY19 period 0 Actuals.

For most funds, Beginning Balances do not contain period 0 TempBudg. Only a small number of Contract and Grant (C&G) funds, including Financial Aid and Federal Appropriation funds, have continued to use TempBudg in BFS since the C&G implementation, so their Beginning Balances continue to include Period 0 TempBudg and Actuals in CalPlanning.

These ranges are as follows:

  • Financial Aid Funds (ranges 23490-23548, 23601-23603, and 33980-33990)

  • Federal Appropriation Funds (ranges 21000-21099 and 33870-33899)

NOTE: Data for inactive Contract and Grant (C&G) funds are excluded from CalPlanning for FY19 Beginning Balances (no changes were made to earlier fiscal years.)

5 FY19 Forecast to FY20 Operating Budget

  • FY19 Forecast Working Version Ending Balances flow to the Beginning Balances of the FY20 Operating Budget Working version throughout the planning cycle.

  • FY19 and FY20 Central Transfers and Commitments have been loaded into CalPlanning from a combination of Actuals data and planned data from the Campus Commitment Database.  

    • General allocation account 71110 was updated to Actual values for FY2018-19 with the actualizing of plan values. (Planned values in this account code reflect Form A data yet to occur.) The FY2019-20 general allocation account 71110 has been seeded with August permanent budget data.  

    • Account 72210 Regents Endowment/FFE FY2018-19 Actual Payout has been copied to the FY2019-20 Operating Budget. Information from University Development and Donor Relations (UDAR) about fund performance will be available in the FY2019-20 Operating Budget Guidelines for potential planner adjustments.

    • Accounts in the Campus Support 712xx and 714xx series have been updated with the most recent commitments data available by the Financial Planning & Analysis team for open periods for both planning years. (Inclusion in the OCFO commitment database does not guarantee future funding. All amounts are subject to change.) Data in these accounts for closed periods reflects actual transacted commitments.

  • Accounts in the 713xx series have been updated for closed periods with Actuals for the FY19 Forecast Working version.  Accounts in the 71xxx series will be further updated in the spring with Form A data provided by the DFLs for both planning years. Cell comments from FY19 Operating Budget Final version have been copied to FY20 Operating Budget Working version to assist in your planning. We recommend you edit these comments as appropriate.
