1 Instructions for the Salaried Casual Appointment Process for Academic, Admin and Support and Trades Type Work via Minerva (Final February 15, 2011) In order for a department to initiate a salaried casual appointment form via Minerva, the department/unit/faculty initiator must have a McGill ID and PIN number. If you do not have a PIN please contact the IST Customer Service Help Desk at Salaried Casual is a casual who is hired for a minimum of 8 consecutive weeks, working an equal number of hours per week at the same hourly rate. (E.g. leave replacement, summer help, etc.). NOTE: Students hired through the "Work Study Program" must continue to be paid through POPS in order to receive their subsidized reimbursements. They cannot be processed via the Minerva Appointment Process. The person designated at the department/unit/faculty will be able to create an appointment form and also can cancel the form if need be. When the appointment form is saved by the department/unit/faculty, the status of the appointment will be DEP or SUS (depending on the security access level). When the department is ready to submit the form, it will go to the appointment form submitter at the faculty level and the status will change to SUS (suspend). The appointment form submitter will assume full responsibility for the information that is entered on the web appointment form. The appointment form submitter verifies the information on the form. They can also make changes to the form. Once the appointment form submitter submits the form, the status will change to PEN when a research and restricted fund is used. This fund needs to be verified by the Research and Restricted Funds area in Financial Services. If a research and restricted fund is not used, then when the form is submitted the status will change to APP and finally COM.

If no address exists it may be updated, the org will default but can be overridden and a building code must be entered. If an address exists in Banner, the address will not be brought over because it is free form in Banner and we cannot properly match the input fields.

You are presented with the Appointment Form FOAPAL screen (see sample I). Section C FOAPALS (Sample I) A dummy FOAPAL gets defaulted. You must override it with the FOAPAL that you will pay the salaried casual from. The concept of FOAPAL end dates does not exist in Banner. In order to indicate an end date on a FOAPAL, you must enter a new FOAPAL with a new effective date the day after the previous FOAPAL ends. You can enter several FOAPALS for a same effective date so long as the sum of their percentages equals 100%. 13

14 If you change the percentage to less than 100%, you must use tab in order to insert another line for the next FOAPAL. The Save and Continue button disappears because you cannot save a FOAPAL with less than 100% (see sample J). (Sample J) Note that when you change the percentage, the amount changes accordingly. Banner only carries the percentage amount and not the dollar amount. However, to help with the calculation you may enter an amount and the system calculates the percentage. To delete a FOAPAL enter 0 in the % column and press Tab. When the percentage (%) adds up to 100% press Tab and the Save and Continue button will appear. The information must be saved. Click on Save and Continue. You are then presented with the Appointment Form Documents/Notes (see sample K). 14

You can then view the completed document by clicking on the Doc No link and also print it for your records but don t send a copy to Human Resources. This is for your files only. Save and Continue button This will save the completed document and send you back to the Appointment Process List. It will remain on your list and you will need to act on it later (either to submit it or cancel it). Submit button If you are satisfied with your document, you can submit by clicking on the Submit button. Once submitted, the document disappears from your list and will be transferred to SUS, PEN or APP status: SUS: PEN: APP: If you are a department under a faculty. The faculty will need to approve the document. If a research and restricted fund is used it needs to be verified by Research and Restricted Funds in Financial Services. If the fund does not need to be verified by Research and Restricted Funds. 15

16 You will then be sent back to your Appointment Process List. If you need to see the document again, use the Appointment Status Report item to track it down (see Section D Appointment Status Report, page 17). NOTE: The following is a sample of a type of warning message that might appear if similar jobs exist for the same casual. There is already a document for the same position and person. See documents no: #, #, #, # How to access an appointment form from your Appointment List when it has not been submitted (sample L) Documents in your appointment Process list (see Sample L) are documents which you need to process. Definitions for the following links are: When you click on a document number you are presented with all the job information however you may not change anything. Click on Close Window button to return back to the Appointment Process screen to see your appointment list. Click on the Review link to make the necessary changes. If you change any information you must also save it again. If you wish to make changes to the FOAPAL, you must once again save the Appointment Form FOAPALS screen. Once the department /unit /faculty makes the changes and submits, it will go 16

17 to Financial Services with a status of PEN if a Research and Restricted Funds is used. If a research and restricted fund is not used, then when the documents is submitted, the status will change to APP. MOD status Appointments is the department/unit/faculty s responsibility to act on. If a form requires changes, Research and Restricted Funds will return it back to the department /unit/faculty (MOD status) to make the necessary changes. The originator of the document will also receive an automated advising them that the document was returned and the reason why. At this point the department/unit/faculty can cancel or re submit. Click on the Status link to see why it was sent back. Click on the Cancel link if you wish to cancel the form. APP status jobs and Banner updates (the PUSH) Every night, Banner takes all the appointments that were approved (APP). If it passes all the validations it posts it to Banner NBAJOBS/NBIJLST. The system will create a job (with earnings) and will assign a suffix number. It will also override the PEAEMPL record with proper information when it can. If a PEAEMPL record already exists on Banner, it will not be changed (even if the status is terminated); it will be changed accordingly at a later date by a HR Service Centre Representative. The status of the form will now change to COM and an estimated pay date will be displayed on the report. The salaried casual will now receive the automated s. This completes the final process and a pay cheque will be issued to the salaried casual. Section D: How to View the Appointment Status Report The Appointment Status Report under the Appointment Processing Menu (sample M) is used to view all the appointment forms and their statuses. You may not change any information that is on the forms. 17

18 (Sample M) The From and to Creation Dates automatically default a 6 month period. You can override the date. You can narrow your search by selecting a Group, ORGN and status. Click on Submit button. You will be presented with the Appointment Status Report (Sample N) 18

ID, name You can change your preferences by clicking on the Preferences link. F) Appointment Status Report Approval History The following screen shows an example of the Approval History when you click on the Status link. (sample O). This shows you who the initiator was, who approved it, etc. 19

20 (sample O) How to Handle Statutory Holidays Since Banner will generate a full pay for the salaried casuals, it will be the department/unit/faculty s responsibility to manage exceptions. For example, if a salaried casual was not entitled to a holiday, it will be the department/unit/faculty s responsibility to transmit under time via negative hours on POPS. Salaried Casuals are entitled to be paid for one of these holidays, Good Friday and Easter Monday. Both holidays will be paid and the department/unit/faculty will be responsible to put through under time on POPS. They are also entitled to be paid for Christmas Day and New Year s day only. The full pay period will be paid automatically. If the salaried casual does not work between these holidays then the department/unit/faculty will be responsible to put through under time via POPS. Human Resources Service Centre will send e mail reminders to department/unit/faculty. How to Handle Summer Fridays Banner will generate a full pay. If a salaried casual does not work the Summer Fridays, the department/unit/faculty must maintain the appointment to decrease the hours and salary accordingly. See instruction on how to maintain an appointment (page 35) How to Process undertime This is done using POPS. 20

21 How to process overtime This is done using POPS. How to Maintain a FOAPAL You can change FOAPALS on active and terminated appointments. Steps: 1) Create a document under the Appointment Process 2) Select the FOAPAL function 3) Select the org number, the group, and the e class code. You can verify the e class on Banner using NYIJLST or NBIJLST 4) The Person Search button will appear once you ve finished entering your selections. To simplify things, searches are done only on employees with active or terminated jobs matching the org number and e class that were selected. Since the person already exists in the system, the best way to perform the search is on the McGill ID. When you have found the person, click on the McGill ID number to select the person. This will transfer you to the Appointment Form Position Selection screen (see sample P), where you will see which appointment(s) this person currently holds in the selected org number and e class. If you want to view terminated appointments click on the Show Terminated Jobs button (if it applies). (Sample P) 21

22 Click on the position (POSN) whose FOAPAL you wish to maintain. This will take you to an overview of the appointment form. If the job information is correct, click on Continue to move to the FOAPAL screen. Oops, picked wrong position number If you accidentally selected the wrong position, do not go back! Why? Because once you select a position, Minerva immediately creates a document. This means that in selecting the wrong position, a document was created. Take note of that document s number. You must return to the main Appointment Process list, find that document using its number, and cancel it. After that, you will be able to create another document to maintain the FOAPAL. Changing the FOAPAL for active jobs in future of last paid date This screenshot (sample Q) displays the current and future FOAPAL information currently in Banner, along with effective dates, and the Last Paid Date. Sample Q: The FOAPAL screen is where you can enter new effective dates and FOAPALS On this screen you can only do a FOAPAL change effective the day after the last paid date or later. If you enter a retroactive date you ll get the following error message: 22

Enter New FOAPAL information section You are now ready to enter the new FOAPAL information. The system will automatically default the current FOAPALs that exist on NBAJOBS with an effective date of one day after last paid date. If this is the correct effective date you wish to make the change for, leave the effective date as is and only change the FOAPAL information. If not, override the date with the proper effective date of change and also enter the new FOAPAL information. To review how to enter FOAPAL information go back to the section C FOAPAL (page 13). The information must be saved. Click on Save and Continue from the Appointment Form FOAPALS screen (Sample Q). This will bring you to the Appointment Form Documents/Notes screen (See Sample R).

How to reappoint A reappointment is the process that extends a job (same org and e class) by generating a new job with the same position number, same suffix and new appointment start and end dates. The reappointed job starts the day after the termination of the previous job, without a break in service. Every night, Banner loads jobs for reappointment to Minerva. These will be jobs with termination dates ranging from one month in the future (calculated from today s date). Jobs that are up for reappointment will be flagged with a RAP status (see sample Z). At the same time, it saves a copy of each for comparison at a later stage. (Sample Z) Non Renewal of an appointment If an appointment is not going to be renewed, click on the Non Renewal link in your list of appointments. A pop up will ask you to confirm or cancel your decision. Non Renewal of an appointment will change its status to END. The document will disappear from the list of appointments, however, you will still be able to view it from the Appointment Status Report. 30

31 Oooops! If you accidentally delete a reappointment, you can retrieve the information by doing a search on the position and the person using the function (re appt) and create a new reappointment document. Processing a reappointment To reappoint someone, click on the Review link. This will take you to the Appointment Form, where you will be able to update some fields. The values shown in parentheses are those that were loaded from Banner. Enter the new appointment end date and salary. When you click Save and continue, you will be transferred to the FOAPAL information screen. The system will display the previously used FOAPAL. Either override it, or leave it unchanged. Click on Save and Continue. You will be sent to the Documents screen, where you may add comments and indicate which documents will be forwarded. At this point, you can either Save and Continue to keep it on your list in DEP or SUS status or Submit. Once submitted, the reappointment will go into SUS or PEN status, or APP status. Banner / Reappointment Information Mismatches RAP status jobs and Banner updates Every night, Banner loads jobs for reappointment to Minerva flagged with a RAP status. With each nightly load, the system compares the data on Banner and on Minerva (eg. salary, FTE, hours, FOAPAL). If any changes have occurred on Banner since the previous load, the system will update the web RAP document. It will also add a new slice to its status history. Non Renewal of an appointment and cancelling one is not the same Reappointments must be Non renewal if you do not want to reappoint them. For example, if you have reappointed a job and it has gone into SUS status, you may go in to cancel the appointment (CAN status). However, the next day the job will be reloaded as a reappointment with a different document number. You must click on Non Renewal if you do not want to reappoint them. APP status jobs and Banner updates (the PUSH) Every night, Banner takes all the reappointments that were approved (APP) and compares the data with what was first loaded on Minerva to what is currently on Banner. If there was no change, the reappointed job is added to Banner in BAN status and then COM. If the information on Banner changed (e.g salary, citizenship, FOAPAL, etc), the reappointment s status will go to CHG status. (see sample A1). 31

32 (sample A1) Reviewing a CHG status form If information has changed in Banner after an appointment has been approved, you will be able to see those changes by clicking on the Review link. There will be 3 columns of information (see sample B1). The first column will show what information was in Banner when the appointment was created; the second column, what the Banner information is currently; and the third column, what is in the appointment document (in Minerva). The conflicting fields will be highlighted in yellow. 32

33 (Sample B1): fields that were changed in Banner will be highlighted in yellow. You will be able to either Cancel or Refresh the form : Cancel Use if the information currently in Banner is correct and matches what you wanted. Refresh Use if the information currently in Banner is incorrect. Refreshing means a fresh start Refreshing the document will load the information that is currently in Banner back into the Web appointment form. The form will revert to DEP or SUS status.
