Enterprise fee transfers will be done in period 13 as soon as possible after period 12 close. A transfer will be made from the college to the department/unit's 1000 (or main) account, to cover Enterprise fees charged to all O&M and ICR accounts. Departments should re-distribute this transfer to cover the enterprise fee on all their O&M or ICR accounts including instructional accounts (xxx-1506 and xxx-1504). Departments are responsible for Enterprise fees charged to any other accounts that are not O&M or ICR.
Final supplemental and summer session instructional transfers will be done in period 12.

It is critical that you audit the PeopleSoft entries made by staff in the CLA Payroll Office once the entry worksheets have been returned. Let us know immediately if you find an error so that it can be corrected as soon as possible. Items To Check In PeopleSoft:
- Make sure the pay rate is correct
- Is the percentage of time correct?
- Make sure the appointment dates are correct
- Is the action/reason code(s) correct?
- Make sure the Suspension, Termination or Short Work Break rows are not missing (missing end rows can result in OVERPAYMENTS)
Also, we recently updated the list of required documents for NEW CLA HIRES. This updated list can be found on the CLA Fiscal Administration website at:
http://cla.umn.edu/intranet/fiscal/payroll.html
REMEMBER: Auditing the PeopleSoft appointments we enter for you is a crucial part of the payroll auditing process. It is the final step in making sure your employees receive the correct pay on the correct pay day.
