Fee-Related Expenditure Input
This form is used to enter or change Fee-Related Expenditure in the 5 Year Plan.
A section exists for each level - UG, GT etc. - and the accounts used in Student & Fee Planning are listed. These are summary level accounts rather than eFin accounts, and are mapped to financial accounts when the Student and Fee Plan is pushed through to the Financial Plan.
Amounts are entered as negative amounts.
Spread Fee-Related Expenditure
This form allows Fee-Related expenditure to be input at a summary level and spread to lower levels. For example a total can be input for a School, and it will be spread in proportion of existing amounts over the 4 FRE accounts, the Levels and EU/Non-EU. Spreading uses standard PBCS functionality to adjust the existing data, for example increasing or decreasing by a % or an amount. Spreading can be applied proportionately or evenly. General help on spreading is available here, or in (opens in a new window)this video.
This form does not automatically aggregate the information up to College level. This aggregation will occur when aggregation is perormed, as described in Student and Fee Income Rules.
When members are expanded, the detailed cells show the spread amounts. When data is saved, summary totals are updated to show the revised amounts. Changes may be made for each year and then data saved, or each year may be adjusted and saved independently.
Data relates to the Dublin campus only, it is very unusual to have FRE for other campuses. If data for other campuses is to be entered or maintained, it should be performed using the FRE Input form.
