Primary tables are summary-level financial tables.
They group, or summarize, transactions to maintain financial data. Each primary table is set up to store and maintain specific types of information. For example, if a user entered a transaction to set up an original appropriation budget, the financial data for that transaction would post to the Appropriation Table, not to the Cash Control Grant Table. The following are descriptions of each primary table. The Appropriation Table records, monitors, and controls appropriations at the level at which they are awarded.
