For staff/students to pay for conference registration fees with internal funds, you would need to send the details through to the accounting team (fsenonresearch@manchester.ac.uk) and they will post a journal transfer between the two codes.
In the email, let them know the fee amount (£35.00), attendee name, your activity code you are funding this from and any other relevant details so it can be included in the journal description. Obviously, let them know it is for MEEPS 2024. In case you need it, here is our activity code: CA07549 1502 09. Description: G:EEZ MEEPS Workshop – November 2024
