UW Fund Numbers - What The First Three Digits Tell You

This document describes the numbers used to identify the funding sources for campus funds.

Every university expenditure is associated with a specific fund and account number. Funds are identified in Workday starting with FD followed by four 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 FD0144. FD0144 indicates that this is a cost associated with a Federal grant or contract. Additional Worktags are added to specify the unique grant.
