Frequently Asked Questions

Question Answer
When I try to open a Financial Statement, I receive an error message. What does it mean?

There are three reasons why you received an error message:

  • You do not have the appropriate access to that particular fund or grant OR access to view payroll details (if applicable). If you should have access to that fund/grant/view payroll details, submit the FIS Authorization form found on the Financial Services website.
  • You might be using the wrong report:
  • For funds - be sure to select Monthly Fund Details
  • For grants - be sure to select Monthly Grant Details
  • There is no activity on the fund/grant for the selected month - i.e. no transactions were posted.
  • Ensure that you have logged in to Minerva using your 91˿Ƶ ID number.

I just received my FIS access. Why can't I view Financial Statements for the previous months?

Access to view financial statements for the previous months will only take place on the next day after your access was granted.

Exception: You may only view the Summary of Free Balances Financial Statements for the months after your access was granted.

If you wish to view reports for previous years, you will need to run the Month End Reports on the Financial Services website.
I am unsure how to read/interpret the information on a financial statement. Who should I call for help? For questions about specific transactions (why you were charged), contact the individual/Unit who originated the transaction. You may also choose to contact your Fund Administrator.
