Yes. Once the cost center/project has had actuals activity, you will have a reconciliation each month for the rest of the year. In the months where a reconciliation is produced, but the month had no actuals activity, the reconciler is required to approve the reconciliation; however, since there were no actuals, the reconciliation does not require owner approval and will immediately go to “complete” status once the reconciler has approved. For example:
| Month | Actuals Activity | Reconciliation? | Reconciler approval needed? |
Owner approval needed? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| September | No | No | No | No |
| October | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| November | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| December* | No | Yes | Yes | No |
*December did not have actuals activity; therefore, approval is not needed from the owner. Once reconciled, it will go into “complete” status.
Yes. Principle investigators were recently given approval roles and can approve SAHARA reconciliations; however, the department manager or “owner” in SAHARA will still have to certify annually in fall.
