The Appropriation Resolution Report allows the user to generate a report of the district's temporary resolution prior to fiscal year closing or as a final resolution, which is submitted after the County Auditor's office has given final approval for the district's spending plan.

The temporary resolution includes information from the Next Year's Proposed amounts.  The permanent resolution uses data from the current fiscal year amounts.  The user has the ability to select the fiscal year, amounts to use, and include/exclude accounts with zero balances.  The report subtotals, by default, are FUND, FUND/SCC, 1-dig FUNC, 2-dig FUNC and 1-dig OBJ but the reporting levels for each fund can be modified via the 'FUND' tab under CORE>Accounts.  Please click here for more information on how to change the reporting levels.

    • The user selects the fiscal year to report on.

Fund Type

Along with Resolution levels, this report also utilizes the Fund Type field from the Cash Account information to sort funds into appropriate Fund Type categories on the Appropriation Resolution. If the Fund Type is left blank on a Cash Account, it will not be included in the Appropriation Resolution. Please see the Accounts page for more information on the Cash Account fields.
