  • February Month-End Close Deadline:  Journal entries, data collect batches and journal imports should be processed through at least departmental workflow by Feb. 27, at 5 p.m., in order to ensure the journal will be posted in February.  Central Office (OSR, Accounting Services and the Budget Office) will ensure journals are posted if received by that date.

Questions

Users are encouraged to call the Help Desk when they are unsure who to contact for issue resolution.  While users may have worked with a specific consultant or BA for another issue, any new issues must be submitted via a remedy ticket, not by calling an individual directly.  This is the fastest was to obtain assistance and allows the project team to be able to track issues to determine the scale of the impact to all users.

All technical questions should be directed to the Business Systems Help Desk at 919-962-HELP, or submitted via a help ticket online at help.unc.edu (select ConnectCarolina > ConnectCarolina Finance > the appropriate area of concern).

Functional or business process questions – plus any tips you have to offer – can be added to the ConnectCarolina user discussion forums.
Suggestions for content can be emailed to janet_kelly-scholle@unc.edu.
