If the donor has indicated that the funds must be directed to a particular purpose and/or the recipient is required to report how the funds were used, a resource code is assigned to allow all financial activity related to the grant to be tracked in the accounting system. On a periodic basis, usually quarterly, the CFO reviews the reported use of the grant funds to determine if any expenses are inconsistent with the grant's purpose. If any expenses are inconsistent, a journal is prepared to reassign those expenses to an appropriate resource.
