Search for a Fiscal Code

​Verifiers and Approvers can search for and select a fiscal code in a field that has an asterisk in the column header, e.g., PCA*, Grant*, Sub*, etc. Once a fiscal code is selected, it will be automatically entered and any other related fiscal codes will be entered as well.

1. Place the cursor in any field marked with an asterisk and press F3.

2. In the look up dialog box, enter any combination of search criteria (Name, Description, Type, PCA or Index, or whatever is applicable to the fiscal code). You can enter just the first few numbers or letters or use the wildcard (%).

3. Click Find.

4. Click Select next to the code or item you want to use.

In some searches, such as the subobject look up, click the actual code you want to use.

When selecting a PCA or Index, any other related fiscal codes, such as the Budget Unit and Fund, will be entered automatically if you have set up the PCA or Index in STARS to do so.
