Departments (Organizational Units) Page 1 OVERVIEW: The department dimension is the second level of budgeting and accounting within a fund. This section of the Uniform Chart of s includes a listing of commonly used departments within a county and the suggested numbering parameters to be used for the related departments. Many counties have different departmental structures. Also, many use different departmental names for the same activity. In some cases, some of the departments listed in this section are divisions of departments. All counties use the department dimension to budget and account for expenditures within their respective counties. Counties who have chosen to utilize additional dimensions can use this dimension for the major responsibility centers within a county and use the program and service dimensions to break out subordinate areas within the major responsibility centers.
