The original purpose behind Project/Program Tags is to provide districts with flexibility if they use DPI-defined project codes for other purposes. There are only two cases where use of Project/Program Tags is required: non-DPI grants, and DPI-assigned project codes used for other local purposes.

What to Submit/retrieve
1.0
Sending local accounts at the school-level
LEAs may submit local accounts that exactly map to the rolled up DPI chart of accounts when they don’t submit granular-level chart of accounts. DPI expects LEAs to submit Actuals and Budgets to the Local Account which is referenced to the DPI chart of account.
For the local accounts chosen to be submitted at the school-level, the educationOrganizationId would be the 'School ID', and the school-level local account would roll up to DPI WUFAR chart of accounts on /localAccounts
POST on /localAccount: accountIdentifier: 10E200120110000141 fiscalYear: 2020 chartOfAccountReference: accountIdentifier: 10E000100110000000 educationOrganizationId: 48856 fiscalYear: 2020 educationOrganizationReference: educationOrganizationId: 2730
2.0
Sending local accounts at the district-level
For the local accounts chosen to be submitted at the district-level, the educationOrganizationId would be the 'LEA ID', and the location code is 000 in that 18 digit string
POST on /localAccount: accountIdentifier: 10E800230251100000 fiscalYear: 2020 chartOfAccountReference: accountIdentifier: 10E000230251100000 educationOrganizationId: 48856 fiscalYear: 2020 educationOrganizationReference: educationOrganizationId: 6826
3.0
Sening the LEA local account more granular than the DPI chart of accounts
The Object or Source can be submitted at more granular level than DPI chart of account.
Example :
DPI CHART OF ACCOUNT:
[Fund-Type-Location-Object or Source-Function-Program/Project]
10-E-000-100-110000-000 / Salaries
AccountType remains same as DPI account
LOCAL ACCOUNT:
Fund-Type-Location-Object or Source-Function-Program/Project]
POST on /localAccount: accountIdentifier: 10E100165110020000 fiscalYear: 2020 chartOfAccountReference: accountIdentifier: 10E000100110000000 educationOrganizationId: 48856 fiscalYear: 2020 educationOrganizationReference: educationOrganizationId: 2730
4.0
Sending the LEA locat accoutn local account with any Function beginning with 5
Local accounts with Function beginning with 5 should be mapped to 000000.
Example :
DPI CHART OF ACCOUNT:
[Fund-Type-Location-Object or Source-Function-Program/Project]
10-R-000-100-000000-000 / State Equalization Aid
WUFAR defines function 500000 as “district-wide” that is still used by some districts in revenue accounts. In order to validate local account functions are consistent with reporting accounts, we need to make sure that any 5xxxxx function is mapped to reporting function 000000.
LOCAL ACCOUNT:
Fund-Type-Location-Object or Source-Function-Program/Project]
10-R-800-621-500000-000 / State Aid Equalization account
POST on /localAccount: accountIdentifier: 10R800621500000000 fiscalYear: 2020 chartOfAccountReference: accountIdentifier: 10R000621000000000 educationOrganizationId: 48856 fiscalYear: 2020 educationOrganizationReference: educationOrganizationId: 1302
5.0
Sending reporting tag for local accounts
