Organization Code Overview

|

|
Summary: Learn about the organization code, which classifies organizations in IFIS (Integrated Financial Information System). |
|
The organization code is a six-digit code used in IFIS to identify departments or functional units within a department. Individual departments may have more than one organization code, depending on the functions performed by the department.
The organization code is one of the seven elements of the Chart of Accounts, the organized structure used to record and report all University financial transactions. The elements together are referred to as IFOAPAL.
To find any organization code, you can:
New organization codes are established when a new department is created or when an existing department begins performing a new function. They are also established to reflect new or restructured cost centers in administrative or service departments. To request a new organization code, contact Bob Colio, (858) 534-4992.
The first two digits of the organization code identify one of UCSD's 12 functions. Each department has a separate organization code for each of these functions performed:

The fifth and sixth digits of the organization code indicate the specific department or activity within an academic function. In non-academic functions, these digits can be used for any purpose.
How are organization and program codes related? For any transaction, the first two digits of the organization code must match the first two digits of the program code (except for organization codes that start with 41.)
