Budget reconciliation involves reviewing financial transactions and supporting documents to ensure accuracy and resolve discrepancies. Monthly reconciliation is key to financial accountability, confirming that transactions are authorized and properly coded in TMU’s Financial Information System (TMUFIS).
Budget reconciliation at the university happens on three levels: department, faculty, and institution-wide. The resources below support departments in managing their reconciliation process.
