Implement a financial management system that can grow with UC Merced, meet the reporting needs of faculty and administrators, and enable the division to fulfill its mandate as steward of the campus’ financial resources and to provide excellent service.
The Division of Finance and Administration started the Alpha Financials project in 2018. The new financial system is scheduled to be production-ready in December 2020, then go live and be put into use by UC Merced in January 2021.
The chance to rethink and modernize the university's accounting practices by restructuring the Common Chart of Accounts is one of the biggest opportunities addressed by the Alpha Financials project.
