Enable Burdening for Internal Funding Sources

Enable or disable burdening for internal funding sources, even if the award, award project, or funding source is budgeted or has transactions. If an award project is enabled for burdening, you can specify whether you want to apply burden costs to raw costs for internal funding sources

1. On the Manage Award Projects page, expand the award project.
2. Click the Financial tab.
3. Select or deselect the Enable Burdening check box in the Indicate Burden for Internal Funding Sources region.

   If you enable burdening, you may need to manually recalculate existing budget lines, costs, or other project-related transactions.

For a project enabled to generate burden costs on the same line, you can perform the Recalculate Raw Cost adjustment type, which will automatically reverse the previous burden cost too. For a project enabled to generate burden costs on separate lines, you must reverse the previously generated burden costs manually.

Some things to consider if you disable previously enabled burdening:

• Any existing burden cost must be manually reversed. You can manually reverse burden costs using a new miscellaneous cost transaction or a cost imported from a third party source.
• You can't perform Recalculate Burden Cost adjustment on costs.
• if you recalculate burden costs in the Manage Burden Schedules page after disabling, the View Burden Costs page displays a burden cost even though no burden cost is generated going forward. Also, the output report of the Generate Burden Costs process shows the burden cost even though no burden cost is actually generated.
