Ohio Rev. Code Ann. § 126.12 – Recovering statewide indirect costs

(A)
1. (1) The office of budget and management shall prepare and administer a statewide indirect cost allocation plan that provides for the recovery of statewide indirect costs from any fund of the state. The director of budget and management may make transfers of statewide indirect costs from the appropriate fund of the state to the general revenue fund on an intrastate transfer voucher. The director, for reasons of sound financial management, also may waive the recovery of statewide indirect costs. Prior to making a transfer in accordance with this division, the director shall notify the affected agency of the amounts to be transferred.
2. (2) To support development and upgrade costs to the state's enterprise resource planning system, the director also may make transfers of statewide indirect costs attributable to debt service paid for the system to the OAKS support organization fund created in section 126.24 of the Revised Code. Transfers may be made from either of the following:
  1. (a) The appropriate fund of the state;
  2. (b) The general revenue fund, if the statewide indirect costs have been collected under division (A)(1) of this section and deposited in the general revenue fund.
(B) As used in this section, "statewide indirect costs" means operating costs incurred by an agency in providing services to any other agency, for which there was no billing to such other agency for the services provided, and for which disbursements have been made from the general revenue fund or other funds.
(C) Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, in order to reduce the payment of adjustments to the federal government as determined under the plan prepared under division (A)(1) of this section, the director of budget and management shall, on or before the first day of September each fiscal year, designate such funds of the state as the director considers necessary to retain their own interest earnings.
