The University of Maryland's Financial Records System (FRS) has been replaced by the Kuali Financial System (KFS). The KFS utilizes electronic forms known as eDocs to combine the flexibility of the FRS with the diversity of forms offered through the Electronic Form Service (ELF). KFS users can identify the proper eDoc to use for specific financial processes by following the Disbursement Voucher Code Guide below, which provides a list of KFS Object Codes that must be used when adding data to KFS. The guide also compares KFS Object Codes to FRS Sub Codes in order to help users when navigating the transition between the two systems.
