Capital Project Procedures:
Changing User Status

The User Status defines the stage of the project as it is reported on the Board Report. The User Status needs to be updated in order for the Board Report to accurately reflect the status of the projects. Specific events should precipitate the change in the user status. For DUHS the FPDC Financial Specialist will update the User Status Fields, for DU the Capital Budget Officer will update the User Status Fields.

All projects start with a user status of PAPP, which means Pre-Approval. The stages a project can move through are as follows:

DSGN	The Design stage is entered when the board has approved the Site, Scope, Architect.
CNST	The Construction stage is entered when the board has approved the project for construction.
CMP1	The Complete 1 stage is entered when the project is substantially complete and it is included in board reporting. It is still being reported because there are open significant financial issues.
CMP2	The Complete 2 stage is entered when the project is complete and it is excluded from board reporting. It is no longer being reported on because there are no remaining significant financial issues.
HOLD	This user status is used when a project has formally been put on hold.
CNCL	This user status is used when a project has been cancelled.
