new forms are to be used effectively immediately.

working hours

Section F
– When VERIFYING jobs, ensure that Job Type is set
to All, Job Status is set to All, exclude cancelled,
Sub Status is set to filled, and the Search from
date is for the date(s) you will be verifying
absences/substitutes and click on SEARCH
Section F
• The following should be looked at when
reviewing the daily report:
– Job HH (Job Hours) should never be more than 9
hours. If there is such an instance, this would
indicate that the absence was called for an
incorrect period. (Ex. 1:00am to 5:00pm)
Section F
– To verify absences/substitutes click on the Verify
Box to manually verify each absence against your
printed emailed report where your sub signatures
are on.
Section F
– When done verifying, select Save Verified.
Section F
– The payroll department will process payment for
all substitutes who have had their information
verified through the SFE system
– SFE Verify Approval must be done daily by campus
clerk. Prior days verify approval is due by the next
day at noon.
Section F
– All daily reports are subject to be pulled for audit,
both by our internal and external auditor. This is
extremely critical with substitutes. Please ensure
that all absences being verified electronically on
SFE are accurate and that all substitutes sign the
SFE Job report for every day they work.
Section F
– Each location is required to keep 4 years worth of
reports on file as per Record Retention Record
Number GR1050-56.
Section F
– Budget Codes
• At the end of each month, the Payroll Department will
send out a budget report that includes each employee
that has used a budget code for the month. If you
oversee a particular funding source and find that an
employee has used your budget code that they should
not have used, please contact the campus so that they
can correct it, otherwise the substitute will be charged
to your budget code funds.
Section G
– Board Approved Rates for the 2014-15 year
