System Government Costing - Fund Balance: Running the Webi Report

Guide to running the Webi report for fund balances.

The adjusted fund balance and working capital should be calculated for every service fund. The over-under recovery should be calculated to determine if your fund has a surplus or a deficit. If you are over or under recovered, this impacts what you should charge your customers. To complete the Adjusted Fund Balance tab in the Service Activity Rate Calculation Template, you need to run the Fund Balance Webi Report first.

Note: In order to run Webi reports, users must have the latest version of Web Intelligence Rich Client installed on their computer. Updates and installation guides can be found through the aits.uillnois.edu.  Alternatively, users can access this report via the web browser based EDDIE system that is available through the OBFS website.
