Change the Custodian of a Change Fund

Before You Begin

Before changing the custodian of a change fund, verify the fund by reconciling it with both the current and new custodians present. The current custodian remains responsible for the fund until this reconciliation is performed and the new custodian assumes his or her duties.

Begin

To change the custodian of a change fund:

  1. The new custodian submits the Change Custodian form which is online at the USFSCO Petty Cash & Change Funds website.
  2. The new custodian completes training.
  3. The current and new custodians perform a reconciliation together. Keep a copy of the reconciliation in your unit’s files.
If the current custodian is unavailable due to an emergency, the new custodian must still reconcile the change fund, but must do so in the presence of the unit head, business manager, or similar supervisor.
  1. The unit head completes the approval of the online request and forwards it by e-mail to University Student Financial Services and Cashier Operations (USFSCO).
