• This form gets the new instructor access to the
classes in banner and includes a contract for any
faculty not on current contract
• Departments are responsible for loading the
courses and instructors into Banner
Summer 2011
Procedures

Dept prints out PAF and sends through
signature process to Department Head and
Dean
 If not on currently active faculty contract, the
Dean’s office sends PAF/Contract to Faculty
member for signature on the contract
 When Dean receives back PAF and signed
contract - sends it to Summer Session office
Summer 2011
Summer Session Office

For New adjunct appointment, Summer Session Office will make a
copy of the zeroed out PAF and send original to HR to do intake,
compliance and establish identity in Banner – original contract filed
in personnel file

Remember your pre-requisites
• background screening requirement
• credentialing


For additional pay for permanent faculty – SS will keep original
zeroed PAF– nothing goes to HR on these
SS retains zeroed PAFs and determines dollar amounts to confirm
pay with departments once final enrollment is established and
configurations completed.


College will know compensation amounts 1 week prior to payroll deadline.
QUICK TURN AROUND – College will confirm amounts within 48 hours
Summer 2011
Summer Session Office


Once compensation is reconciled with the College,
Summer Session office submits a pay EPAF
electronically and the information is loaded into Banner
for payment.
Payment is made according to pay calendar distributed
from the Office of the Provost. Terms lasting 4.5 weeks
or longer will have multiple pay periods. (See APR 19
for pay schedules per term.)

Payments are made at the end of the month
NOTE: After drop add date, if there is no payment for a class, the
PAF is voided for that class and faculty access is removed as
appropriate
Key Points
Accuracy in every blank is essential!

Contract piece no longer needed for permanent
faculty on active contract
All SS PAF’s go to SS office – due by March 25th
DL and resident taught in summer session all
processed on one SS PAF for each instructor
Funding for DL teaching is responsibility of the
College (no longer Ed Outreach)
Cross listed Distance courses must be indicated
as such on PAF – these are paid by Dept DL

Key Points

pay calculations to be correct!


Degree earned affects AMOUNT of pay
Type of employee (FT, PT, Retired) affects
AMOUNT of pay

dates directly affect WHEN the person is paid!

Dean) affects AMOUNT of pay
Pay attention to your position #’s and budget
codes - contact budget office if have questions

classifications must be loaded into
Banner with the course – Banner Contract
Codes – THIS AFFECTS PAY
CALCULATIONS
 PAF’s with missing or incorrect information
will be put aside and will likely delay pay to
the next pay cycle or later.

probably be changing. All fund and
position numbers will be sent to the dean’s
assistants prior to March1st.
