13. There’s a Difference between “Returned Funds” and “Unexpended Funds” in SSARCC  “Returned Funds” = Unused funds returned no later than June 30 th on Mid-Year Report  “Unexpended Funds” = Unused funds reported after June 30 th on Final Expenditure Report

14. When Do You Use the “Returned and/or Reallocated Funds” Column?  If you returned EOPS or CARE funds by June 30, 2012 on Mid-Year Reports  If you received EOPS or CARE reallocated funds  Do not include 2011-12 EOPS special textbook augmentation in SSARCC; instead use “EOPS special textbook augmentation” form

15. “Validate” Final Expenditures  You should use this to double-check work prior to submitting  Address any “error” messages that appear

16. “View Draft Expenditure Report” Do this when:  You think you’re ready to submit to Chancellor’s Office  Ready for review by local district/college staff before submitting to Chancellor’s Office You can still go back into screens to make changes to data

17. “Submit to Chancellor’s Office”  “Submit” after error messages have been addressed and after appropriate local staff have reviewed  “Submit” locks final expenditure screens  “Submit” means final expenditures are officially transmitted to Chancellor’s Office  “Submit” EOPS final expenditures before CARE final expenditures  CARE final expenditures must be submitted separately  To unlock screens, send email to SSARCC help desk: ssarcc- eops@cccco.edu

18. Printing EOPS and CARE Budgets/Signature Pages This is done after you have “submitted” to Chancellor’s Office; to print signature pages, do the following:  1. Click on “view expenditure report”  2. In the “select a format” window, click on the down arrow and then click on “PDF”  3. Click on “export”  4. Wait for report to appear on your computer screen  5. Print out budget/signature page & obtain required original signatures & mail to Chancellor’s Office Follow these same steps for CARE.
