General
The budget control level for state budget codes is indicated within the description for each object class below. This control level differs from one object class to another and may be found at either the major or the minor level.
In some cases, budget control for particular items may be established at a more detailed level than that established for the object class. Items that are routinely budgeted at a more detailed level are indicated by an asterisk (*) in the table that follows.
Budget control levels are indicated in the "Original Budget" column on the FBM090 Account Statement. The budget control level is also the ABR pool level, except that there is no ABR pool for budgets controlled at the UNC-Chapel Hill level.
