Basic Steps

Tab/Accordion Items

Review the authority and impact of the revision types. It is important to cite the authority for the revision.

The justification portion of the revision should answer these two quesitons:

  1. What are you trying to accomplish on the revision?
  2. Why is that adjustment needed? 

Reconcile BD 725 and BD 701. Check totals and balances against certified budget.
