10.30.60 Subsidiary

2022-01-31

The Subsidiary field (PeopleSoft field name = Chartfield 1) is a 6-digit field managed by the State Board.- However, each college has a unique set of values. This value is required by the State of Washington accounting rules.

The Subsidiary chartfield is used to identify when transactions have a corresponding transaction either within the college/district, with the college system or within the state. These transactions must balance within college/district, with the college system or within the state and therefore require a subsidiary field value. Examples:

  1. Within the college all inter-fund receivables and payables must balance, 1010170 (Due From Other Funds Intern Short-Term) and 2021040 (Due To Other Funds Internal Short-Term). The values begin the 3 characters of the fund and end with 3 zeros (i.e. Grants Fund = (145000’). The entry recorded in one fund should have the offsetting fund in the Subsidiary field.

  1. Within the college system all inter-colleges receivables and payables must balance, 1010180 (Due From Other State Agencies Short-Term) and 2021050 (Due to Other State Agencies Short-Term). The values begin the 6990 and the last 2 digits of the other college’s agency number (i.e. Peninsula College has a Due To or From Everett, Peninsula would record ‘699005’. Everett should then record a Due To or From Peninsula with Subsidiary value of ‘699065’. However, if the Due To/From the State Board, then the Subsidiary value would be ‘699000’).
