What is an Analysis Type?
An Analysis Type is a code used on a ChartString that, with an account code value, defines the type of transaction the journal line row represents.
In BFS, a single transaction can result in multiple transaction rows as it moves through the system. For example, a payroll expense (PAY) can create fringe (CBP) and overhead (SFA) that need to be tracked against budget (BUD) and billing rows (BIL/BLD). By assigning Analysis Types for each, we can track the transaction rows resulting from this single transaction throughout the different stages of the project.
It is important to note that an Analysis Type is not a ChartField within the Berkeley Chart of Accounts, but rather a control data code.

Berkeley Specific Requirements
- BFS validation requires that all C&G ChartStrings (those with a C&G Fund or a Cost Share CF1 value) have an Analysis Type value identified on the transaction.
- C&G ChartStrings with a 5xxxx (Expense) Account code should not have a GLR Analysis Type except for Contra Expense accounts related to intercampus vouchers.
