FINQUERY Repository Reports

Encumbrances by Org

This report uses a subquery to look in the GL Detail table for open encumbrances by PO, and retrieves encumbrance transactions for all POs where total encumbrance amount is greater than $1. It has prompts for fiscal year and org, and displays data with breaks on org, fund and object, and then totals (with lines for all payments) by PO.

Keep in mind that the fiscal year prompt means that items that were not finally closed by the system from previous fiscal years or other hanging encumberance numbers won't appear. You can remove or change the fiscal year prompt to show data from other years.

This report works well when used in concert with the online GL Inquiry in BEN Financials, allowing you to see what comprises the online encumbrance balance, without having to run a BEN Financials report.
