3 Before June Payroll Step 1 Verify Contract Balances and Edit Pay Records In the June payroll, most of your administrator payroll contract payments end. Most districts have a limited number of payouts and will find it easier to make any necessary pay record corrections as opposed to using the Payroll Select Contract Payout Import option. The reason for a difference in the final month payroll is due to the monthly pay amount imported from your EM file. The WESPaC system pays the same amount on the pay record as long as it is not greater than the contract balance due. Because of rounding from the original EM calculation, your final payment may not match your contract balance. Run the 1-Employee Contract Balances report. Menu: HR, Profile, Quick Pick Report This is a crystal report which has been loaded into your districts database. The Crystal Report Viewer screen will take a few minutes to display a prompt to run the report. Enter the June end period date. This year, you will enter Click OK. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 1

4 Print/Review Report data. Differences are listed in the last column comparing the contract balance amount to the pay record amount. Note: Negative differences will not be paid, but will display as a calculate warning. You may choose to correct the pay record amount or not. Positive differences will not be paid unless the pay record amount is adjusted or the payroll select import contract payout option is used. Recommendation is to adjust the pay record amount since districts have a limited number of pay records affected in June payroll. Edit employee contract pay record(s) as needed to change the amount to the contract balance. Menu: HR, Profile, Pay Tab Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 2

5 Step 2 Process Exception Items Needed for Terminating Employees In the June payroll, you may have some terminating employees who are receiving their final payroll check. Add terminating employee data as needed: Menu: HR, Profile Enter Time Off Sale for cash outs (Sick, Vacation, and/or Personal leave) Enter VEBA Deduction for cash outs going into VEBA III. Enter Deduction/Benefit end dates appropriate to what should process in final payroll. End Insurance Tracking master and plans with appropriate end processing date. Enter a retirement eligibility end date in their retirement member profile if this is their final payroll being reported to Department of Retirement. Please refer to the WESPaC Terminating Employee Worksheet for details. Enter all other regular payroll items and complete your June Payroll. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 3

6 Before July Payroll Step 3 Print/Save Employee Profile Report (optional) Before administrative contract data is purged, some districts choose to retain a printed and/or saved copy of their employee profile data. If your district saves these, you may choose to create a Payroll Year End folder to store this report. Run the Employee Profile Report Menu: HR, Payroll, Reporting, Master Files Folder-Employee Profile Report Enter selection parameters to select administrator employee type code(s) only or select individual employees.

8 Step 4 Purge Contracts Fully Paid on or Before 06/30/17 Remove paid contracts and their corresponding pay records before importing the new year administrator contracts from EM. This is the recommended procedure for clearing out paid data from the prior year before adding new data for the new year contracts and pay records. You will purge the contracts in step 4 and mass delete the corresponding pay records in step 5. Caution: This utility can delete any contract, whether it is fully paid or not. Use date range and filters to carefully select only those contracts you intend to purge. Run Employee Contracts to verify zero balances and print/save report. Menu: HR, Payroll, Reporting, Master Files Folder-Employee Contracts Click on to clear previous selection parameters. Enter Paid End Date Range: blank to 06/30/2017. The screen display will change to display contracts whose paid end date is on or before 06/30/2017. This may include more than just your administrators.

Click OK to continue with the report. Run Report to screen. Review and Print as needed. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 16

19 Close Report. Click Import to begin the import process. Click Yes to the web message and complete the import process. Step 8 Update Calendar Data (if not completed during budget) Most calendars are updated and cycled during the budget process. Make sure all calendar data is accurate for the new payroll year. Notes about Calendars: Events should be maintained in any new calendars added throughout the year to facilitate the Calendar Event Date Roll each year going forward. Calendars are an extremely important element for calculating salaries and benefits. Calendars can affect salary dollars unless the assignment Do Not Use Calendar to find Calc FTE option is checked. This option should not be used on any base assignment. Calendars can be cloned. Calendar dates, days, and total hours on a position must reflect the full time FTE for the position. Calendar dates, days, and total hours on an assignment should reflect what the employee is actually expected to work. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 17

20 Update Calendars as needed. Refer to the Personnel Budget, Preparing Calendars for the New Year, Step 3, for detailed information on calendars. Caution: Please complete the following steps only if you do not have an administrator calendar created for fiscal year. This step is normally completed in the F195 Personnel budget prep.

Note: A Calendar can also be cloned from an existing calendar and edited to reduce setup steps. Click the Filter Options button. From the dropdown menu, select the Processing Year. Click the Apply Filter button. Click Add. Choose Standard Calendar. Click Save. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 20

23 Step 9 Mass Update Assigned, Pay Start and Stop Dates There are utilities available to mass change position and assignment data. An example of using this utility would be to mass change the assigned, pay start and pay stop dates from the old fiscal year to the new fiscal year. This may not have been updated during the budget process, since the pay start and end dates have no impact on the budget process. Change Assignment Maintenance Assigned Date and Contract Payroll Start and End Dates. Menu: Web HR, Employee Administration, Employee Management, Setup, Utilities Choose the July/Admin Plan at the top of the screen. Select Positions-Assignments Mass Change. Edit an existing template or click Add. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 21

You can also check the Additional Option Remember my Update Assignments selections for THIS edit session. Position Details tab- Calendar days and hours reflect a 1 FTE. Salary method should be most commonly used option as it defaults on an assignment (salary amount, hourly pay amount, or matrix). If Salary Amount or Hourly Pay Amount is the method, the salary/hourly amount can be blank, unless the position has a most commonly used amount. If Matrix is the method, the most commonly used matrix can be selected. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 28

31 Payroll Information tab (all fields optional)- Pay Code and Pay Freq can be most commonly used codes for this type of position so that it defaults on an assignment. Paid Start and Paid End dates can be most commonly used dates for this type of position so that it defaults on an assignment (first day of the first payment month and last day of the last payment month). Account Distribution can be most commonly used account number(s) totaling 100% so that it defaults on an assignment. Breakdown tab (all fields optional)- Assignment Breakdown can be most commonly used breakdown for this type of position so that it defaults on an assignment. Refer to the EM/SN Position/Assignment Samples for detailed information regarding specific types of positions. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 29

32 Step 11 Review and Update Employee Assignments Assignment information reflects data known at the time of budget. Edit and review each assignment as needed to ensure all data is accurate for payroll. There are six parts to every assignment Assignment Details, Salary Information, Payroll Information, Breakdown, Add-ons, and Ded/Ben Information (in EM only used for Benefit FTE field). In EM you can view/edit assignment data two different ways: 1) From the Position Control screen. You can access assignments for the selected position. Menu: Web HR, Employee Administration, Employee Management, Position Control 2) From the Assignments screen. You can access all assignments. Menu: Web HR, Employee Administration, Employee Management, Assignments Refer to the EM/SN Position/Assignment Samples for detailed information regarding specific types of positions/assignments. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 30

33 Assignment Maintenance: Assignment Details tab- Assign date is on or before employee s work start date. Salary Information tab- If base assignment, FTE is correct (employee s hrs/day in relation to the calendar s hrs/day). If base assignment, Calc. FTE is correct (employee s total hours in relation to the Position s 1 FTE total hours). If using hourly or contract matrix, it accurately reflects employee s placement. Calculated/per diem contract amount (calculated from salary amount, hourly rate, or matrix) is correct for payroll. Calendar, work start and end dates, days and hours reflect employee s work schedule. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 31

34 Payroll Information tab- Pay Code is correct for new year contract or non-contract type payment. Paid start and end dates are correct (may be blank for timesheet assignments). Account distributions and percentages are correct. If less than twelve months of payments, appropriate pay frequency or pay frequency override is chosen. Use of this is determined by your districts EM configuration setup. Calculated per pay period amount is correct for actual monthly payment. If Additional Pay Rate Pay Codes are needed, the correct pay code is identified. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 32

35 Breakdown tab- SPI assignment data is correct Account codes and percentage totals match Payroll Information tab account codes and percentage totals. Note: If assignment breakdown data balances to payroll distribution accounts and percentage totals, the Account Distribution Update option is desensitized. If this option is sensitized and selected, it will override the current payroll accounts/distribution data by moving the assignment breakdown data to payroll. Use this option with caution. Add-ons tab- If the assignment has add-on salary information, verify that data is accurate. Ded/Ben Information tab- Verify Benefit FTE is correct for base assignments and zero for non-base assignments. Administrative Contracts July Payroll NCESD Fiscal Coordination 33

36 Add New Assignments. Assignments may need to be added for new employees or existing employees whose assignments were not budgeted for against their individual profile. In EM you can add new assignments two different ways: 1) From the Position Control screen. You can add a single staff assignment or mass add multiple staff assignments.

43 Step 13 Export Assignments from EM into Payroll When all of your Administrator/July-June assignments have been entered, updated, and verified, they are ready to be exported and imported into payroll. Since you purged contracts and pay records in steps 4 and 5, this import will be used to create new pay records. Assignment Export/Import Notes: Non-Contract/Rate Type pay codes If the assignment salary calculation is based on an hourly rate or hourly matrix, the hourly rate will import into the payroll pay record. If the assignment salary is based on a salary amount or salary matrix, the imported pay record amount will be blank. An amount can be entered on the imported profile pay record or worksheet entry. The factor is normally set to zero. Non-Contract/Non Rate Type pay codes The imported amount will be the salary amount divided by the number of pays (set by 12 for Pay Freq=M or a designated pay frequency override code) The factor is automatically set to 1. Start the Assignment Export/Import Process.

Otherwise, all other Time Off year end roll is processed after August payroll. Steps/Reminders for the Roll Process: 1. You should enter administrative time off leave transactions (including buybacks) dated on or before 06/30/17 before you process this year end roll. Do not enter any transactions dated on or after 7/1/17 until you have completed the roll process. 2. If your district uses Employee Access Time Off Requests make sure all requests for Admins dated 6/30/17 or earlier are approved or denied. You can verify this by running the report Unapproved Time Off Requests in Web HR, Time Off, Time Off-Reports. 3. If your district wishes to purge some prior year historical detail, you should complete that before you complete the roll effective 06/30/2017. You will run the Time Off Year End Purge utility twice if your district is purging historical time off detail-once to remove detail, and once to roll.
