Tracking External Income
We receive a variety of outside funding. Due to the lapse in time between submitting payment information and receipt of funds, it is important to maintain a tracking record of pending income.
ELRC & Head Start
The Sprout Director is responsible for calculating and submitting ELRC invoices. Each month, the payment pending amount is communicated via Slack.
The amount is then entered into the Deductions and Deposits sheet in the ELRC/Head Start tab
Scroll down to the appropriate year in the tab.
Column H is the amount we are expecting to receive
Column I is where that money is coming from and the month
Ex: $[Amount] | Expected January Head Start
Once the funds have been received in the bank account, that date the money was received is recorded in Column A, the amount received is recorded in Column B and the entity providing payment is recorded in Column C.
Ex: 02/24/2022 | $[Amount] | January Head Start
CACFP & SFSP
The Kitchen Manager is responsible for calculating and submitting CACFP and SFSP invoices. Each month, the payment pending amount is communicated via Slack in the admin-mealnumbers channel

Column H is the amount we are expecting to receive
Column I is the month & year that money accounts for

Column D: Committed- is how much the grantor approved the grant to be paid out
Column E: Pending- How much money we are still waiting to receive from the grant
Column F: Denied- How much money was denied by the grant
Column G: Complete- This box can be checked when the grant is fully executed, all funds received, and all reporting requirements have been fulfilled
Column H: Notes- This is a space to note anything about the status of the grant. This could be most recent correspondence dates, comments, submission dates, etc.
