02 - 022 General Coding Conventions
General Coding Conventions
-
All funds have 6 characters
-
Character value, see full description below:
- Campus designation in first character.
- Fund type designation in second character.
- Third character is campus designated
- For sponsored programs funds, the second and third character provide recognition of the sponsor (See Procedure 02-023 USNH Grant Fund Coding Conventions for more details).
- Be mindful that sort sequence will advantage/disadvantage users when using desktop applications (Excel) to manipulate down loaded data.
- Try to avoid data entry gremlins such as:
- # 0 vs. letter O
- # 1 vs. I vs. letter l
- E as the only character in the code, meaning all the other elements in the code are numeric (Excel thinks this is an exponential number)
- Thorough coding conventions, enable efficient Banner look-ups/queries (use of % for wildcarding)
