This is the $5.0M referenced in the Budget Call letter that is being provided as a one-time adjustment to help defray the cost of the 3% merit rate for staff salaries. For academic units, these amounts were loaded in CalPlan from the central commitment database, and the amounts can also be seen on the divisional Intersection Detail Reports (IDRs). For non-academic units, the decision was made after the database load to CalPlan, so these amounts do not show up on the IDRs; however, affected units were emailed with their respective amounts on February 19th. These amounts were entered manually in CalPlan to the benefitting units in the month of September in account code 71302.
