SUMMARY: Changes to the payroll processing schedule for the payroll period ending December 15, 2007 due to December 24, 2007 being designated a state holiday

As a result of Governor Sebelius declaring Monday, December 24, 2007 as an additional state holiday for 2007, the following changes have been made to the December payroll processing schedule for the payroll period ending December 15, 2007:

Friday, December 14, 2007
Payday for the payroll period ending December 1, 2007.

Time and leave interface agencies must have time and leave files for the period ending December 15, 2007 submitted to the Department of Administration for processing by 5:00 p.m. on December 14, 2007. (These files would normally be due Monday, December 17, 2007.)

Monday, December 17, 2007
Paysheets for the on-cycle payroll for the period ending December 15, 2007 will be created on Monday, December 17, 2007. All job actions (i.e. promotions, terminations, new hires, leave of absences, step increases, etc.) must be entered by 6:00 p.m. on December 17, 2007 in order to be reflected on the paysheets for this period. (Paysheets would normally be created on Tuesday, December 18, 2007.)

The first on-cycle preliminary pay calculation for the period ending December 15, 2007 will also occur December 17, 2007, rather than Tuesday, December 18, 2007; therefore, all time and leave data should be entered into SHARP and designated ‘OK to Process’ by 6:00 p.m. December 17, 2007. Please note that there will only be two SHARP on-cycle preliminary payroll calculations for the pay period ending December 15, 2007.

The Run 'C' off-cycle for the payroll period ending December 1, 2007 continues to be scheduled for December 17, 2007. The check issue date for the Run 'C' off-cycle will remain Thursday, December 20, 2007.

The second on-cycle preliminary pay calculation for the period ending December 15, 2007 will occur December 18, 2007.

Wednesday, December 19, 2007

All employees’ time and leave records must be ‘OK to Process’ by 6:00 p.m. on December 19, 2007 in order for a paycheck record to be created.
