RE:      Meeting Notes from June 9, 2010

 

 

1.    Web New Hire Demonstration - Gabe Nwandu and Jasmine Mejia

Gabe and Jasmine gave a demonstration of the Web New Hire application.  The application is a new way to enter/update transactions to PPS for new hires and rehires.   It's similar to the New Hire  bundle on CICS PPS.   Preparers are now able to hire/rehire employees through Web New Hire.   Anyone with entry/update access will automatically have access to Web New Hire.

Note:  Web New Hire cannot be used for other PPS change transactions such as Additional Employment, Staff/Academic Appointment Renewals, Separations, etc. For further information, please refer to:  http://www.accounting.ucr.edu/webnewhire.htm

 

2.    2010 Retirement Dates - Theron Lyon

Theron informed the group to separate employees retiring at the end of month on June 29, 2010.   This should be the last day on pay as well.  It is very important that these employees be paid one day less for the month of June so that they can receive COLA (cost of living adjustment).

 

3.    Summer Sessions - Roberta Nardico 

Roberta reminded PPS preparers not to separate employees that will be working Summer Session, but to add department D01083 as an alternate department.   Preparers were also reminded to check work permit end dates and assure that the dates cover through September 2010, otherwise the employee will not be able to work Summer Session.   A list of these employees is available on the payroll website under the following link.

5.    Use of Furlough Days by FY Faculty - Karen Hruby

Karen spoke briefly about furlough days and FY Faculty.   Here is what she has provided.

 

"In response to the inquiry regarding the use of furlough days by FY faculty to exchange for additional compensation under APM 600.14, Vice Provost Bocian has approved this use of furlough days."
