Setting Expectations • • • • • Only core functionality will be available at go-live.
We’re starting with limited workflow—we’ll be using processes outside of PeopleSoft for certain HR & Financial transactions.
We’ll have to work through the kinks—some functionality may not work smoothly right at implementation.
We’ll have to be patient—we’ll need additional time to process and enter transactions in the beginning.
We will be using a PeopleSoft simulation environment during training.

Terminology • • • Absence Event (Leave Request): The period of time that a payee is absent for the same reason. For example, if a payee is out sick Monday through Wednesday, the three-day absence is referred to as an absence event.
Entitlement: This defines rules for granting paid time off for valid absences, such as sick time and vacation. An absence entitlement defines the entitlement amount, frequency, and entitlement period (Monthly Accrual).
Cascading: A feature in the Absence Management module to automatically deduct employee submitted absence hours against a prioritized order of an employee’s accrued leave type balances. 5
Timekeeper • Roles and Responsibilities – Timekeepers on campus will have the ability to enter, correct and submit leave request entries for their respective departments into the PeopleSoft system. – Departments will still need to maintain and manage pre approved absence request forms.
– You will only report absences for • Vacation leave • • Sick time Bereavement • • Jury Duty Educational Activity Conference 6
Absence Reporting Entries • Timekeepers will be able to enter and submit leave for the following leave eligible employees:

What IS Changing?
• • • • • • • Introduction of a Cascading.
Absence Events will now be handled by absence management in HR.
Leave requests will be impacted by work schedule.
View balances format is different.
Balances will not be updated upon submission.

Absence events will have two monthly hard deadlines for processing.

What is NOT Changing?
• • • • • All employees eligible for leave must continue to submit a leave request form. Your leave request approvals: –
Internal Electronic Leave Request System
–
Paper Based System.
Leave will be processed by the department in a leave system. Current campus leave policies and procedures will apply.
FMLA and sick leave pool processing will be maintained by HR.

Cascading • • Cascading is a new concept used in PeopleSoft to automatically deduct leave hours from various leave balance types.
Cascading Acronyms: – – VAC –Vacation Unpaid Abs – Unpaid absence – – EA – Educational Activities COMP- Comp time – O/T-FLSA – Overtime-Fair Labor Standards Act 10
Leave Type (Element) Vacation

Overtime/FLSA Overtime/FLSA Overtime/FLSA *Floating Holiday *Floating Holiday *Floating Holiday Unpaid Absence Educational Activities Vacation Vacation Comp Time Overtime/FLSA Vacation Unpaid Absence Unpaid Absence Unpaid Absence *Floating Holiday: UTEP does not have Floating Holiday. This will be visible because other participating institutions have Floating Holiday. Note: If Floating Holiday is accidentally selected, the system will automatically cascade.

Cascading Example • • • An employee has the following available leave balances: – 20 hours of vacation – 36 hours of sick – 16 hours of comp time The employee submits 40 hours of vacation. The time is approved by their reports-to manager.
What will happen?
– 20 hours will be pulled from their available vacation hours – Their available sick hours will be skipped (because it is not in the vacation cascading order) – 16 hours will be pulled from their available comp time hours – 4 hours will go unpaid.
12
Leave Request Adjustments • • Timekeeper have a 90 day pay window from the absence event to enter or make any adjustments.
Adjustments after 90 days of an event will need to be reported to the Absence Management in HR.
