  My-UI-Financials
  My-UI-Financials https://www.obfs.uillinois.edu/my-ui-financials/ is a financial report distribution tool where you can view all your financial and payroll information in one spot. You can drill down to see transaction details and open standard finance and payroll reports. You can provide others within your department access to My-UI-Financials to view the FOPs they are interested in instead of distributing paper copies of financial reports. Join University Accounting & Financial Reporting as we demonstrate My-UI-Financials and discuss how to get started and use it in your department.
