For employees who track or manage department budgets, please note that the month of December 2013 is now closed in the CFS Finance System. This means that the General Ledger (GL) system will not accept any more entries with a December Journal Date. December transactions can still be entered into the GL system, but the Journal Date must be 1/1/2014 or later. Periods currently open are January 2014 through June 2014.
