UW Fund Numbers - What The First Three Digits Tell You
Every university expenditure is associated with a specific fund and account number. Funds are identified by three numbers that associate specific payments to specific funding sources.
EXAMPLE: A supply order for a federally-funded research project would indicate that the order would be paid for using 144-XXXXXXX. The "144" at the beginning of the sequence indicates that this is a project associated with a Federal grant or contract. The "XXXXXXX" are the seven numbers and/or or letters associated with that specific project.
