Departments should create a budget for all events to outlined anticipated expenses, planned expense forms which may include contracts, and funding sources. In order to process expenses through lawbudget@syr.edu the department should outline their strategic use of funds.
After you have confirmed funding availability, funding source (chartstrings to be verified with budget) you will then need to assess the associated expenses to host the event. This would be the specific details you will be spending money on. A budget should include columns with BOTH the proposed cost and the actual cost. Following is a template to assist you with creating an event budget.
The budget also outlines the forms needed to process the associated expenses. Please note that many expense items should be set up well ahead of the event, and should not wait until the event occurs.
Please work closely with administrative staff in your area to plan appropriately, and reach out to lawbudget@syr.edu with any questions or verification.
Important note for guest speakers, the reimbursement form used is dependent on the individual event and situation.
