When to use an Activity Code
Using specific activity codes is at the discretion of each Department/Unit. If a Department/Unit has no additional reporting needs, then the default activity code "000000" may be used for all transactions.
It is recommended to use activity codes when transactions associated to a specific activity/purpose need to be tracked or grouped together.
Activity codes are not assigned for use to a specific Department/Unit. Once created, the activity code is available to all users processing financial transactions.
