Project Classification
Summary
This page provides a complete list of Project Class Categories and Project Class Codes as reference.
On reports with PPM balances for non-sponsored projects such as Faculty and Researcher Dashboard, Project Management Dashboard, and Expanded Project Summary, costs are reported on either an inception-to-date or fiscal-year-to-date basis depending on the purpose of the project. Projects that are used for annual operations and typically have an annual budget are reported on a fiscal-year-to-date basis, while projects that typically have a one-time budget and operations that span multiple years are reported on an inception-to-date basis. The PPM Reporting column indicates how each class of projects is reported.
