Transfer accounts are used to move cash from one cost center to another and at the same time update commitment control (KK). Note that cash transfers are only possible in cash-based funds.
For appropriation funds, a transfer is processed through a budget transfer. Visit the Budget Toolkit for assistance on how to make budget transfer: Budget & Commitment Control – Learn & Grow (ufl.edu) or email budgethelp@ad.ufl.edu for additional guidance.
