Introductions

• Name

• Department

• Position

• Years experience with Campus

• Experience with Staffing List

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 4

Our Goals for Today are...

• Understanding the staffing list,

• Know where to obtain assistance to help balance your list,

• Know what staffing list reports to use,

• Balance your staffing list.

I can’t believe

its true!!!

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 5

WHAT is the staffing list?

• The vehicle through which each department aligns its base budget with its actual staff & faculty salary commitments.

• Contains permanent FTE, salary, and funding information.

6

Why do we have a staffing listWe have a staffing list to:

• Make sure we can pay everyone to whom we have made permanent commitments.

• Ensure departments receive all base salary related funding.

• Fulfill State of California reporting requirements.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 7

Who is on the Staffing list?

Included on the list are:

• Staff positions (SUBS) and academic positions (SBXX)

• Indefinite appointment (end date = 99/99/99)o Some exceptions for

academics

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 8

What are the Guidelines?

• Funding of salary adjustments must be provided in the fiscal year the change is implemented.

• If the appointment ends permanently before June 30 of the current fiscal year, the base budget does not receive funding.

• General Assistance (SUBG) positions are not reconciled in the staffing list process.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 9

More Guidelines - Funding of Staff Salary Actions – Who funds what?

• For General Funds and Registration Fee Funds (Core funds)o Campus funds merits and rangeso Dean/Vice Chancellor and departments responsibility

• Managing turnover savings• Funding above the last incumbents salary • Funding Reclassifications• Funding departmental equity adjustment decisions

o All other funds- Dean/Vice Chancellor and department fund all salary actions

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 10

There are three distinct sections to the list.

• 1) Base Budget • DaFIS

• 2) Salary Commitments• Payroll Personnel System

(PPS) and Provision Databases

• 3) Diagnostic section• Total base budget is compared

to salary commitments

Where does the list come from?

You mentioned the Base Budget? Base Budget(BB)

• Basis for the Staffing List. Permanent on-going funding.

• Changes affect next year’s current budget.

• DaFIS BB document used to modify.

Current Budget(CB)

• Authority to spend for current year. Shown as appropriations on ledger.

• Changes affect current year budget.

• DaFIS CB document used to modify.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 23

Base Budget is the

foundation

Base vs. Current budgetBase Budget

• Augmented for annual cost of salary increase.

o Show up next fiscal year.

Current Budget

• Augmented to cover current year expenses.

o e.g., a merit effective 10/1/11 received 9 months of current budget funding.

Filled Permanent Positions

• This information is from current PPS distributions and must meet both criteria:

o Distributions funded from SUBS/SB0X.o Indefinite appointments (end date = 99/99/99).

• This information can be changed through PPS (i.e., PPS on-line update).

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 33

WARNING!!!Watch for:

1) The FTE box on the PPS distribution line.

2) Incorrect object codes (e.g., SUBG instead of SUBS).

Why? It will cause the list to be out of balance.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 34

Open Provisions are….

• Place holders for vacated positions that you intend to fill. They are not in PPS, but need to show on the staffing list as commitments.

• Positions that are budgeted in the base budget to hold funding.

• Managed by departments via the Open Provision form.

• More information located at: http://www.provisions.ucdavis.edu/

When do we balance it?

We should balance the staffing list:

• Depends on departmental activity. A quarterly file is sent to the Office of the President.

• Minimum mid-year to reflect major funding actions; and at fiscal year end.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 49

When is it Required...

• Departments must have their lists balanced by July 15, 2011.

• Workshops are available.o Please contact Donna Udahl at 752-

5318 or dfudahl@ucdavis.edu to schedule.

o Before requesting a workshop:- Must have attempted to balance list.

- Must have worked with your Dean’s or Vice Chancellor’s office.

Subject to Change.

Check Fiscal Close Schedule

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 50

And if I still don’t get it to balance...

• Unbalanced staffing lists will be forced into balance by using SUBG funds from the same account.

• A report of unbalanced accounts is sent to Deans/Vice Chancellor Office.

If it wasn’t funded...

• What if I forget to get campus funding and I am forced balance?

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 51

• You have until October 31st of the new fiscal year to request funding.

A few key points about funding...

• Merits and ranges for core funds (General funds and Registration Fee funds) are funded from central campus accounts.

• Non-Core funds are funded from SUBG in the same account.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 60

How are merit and ranges funded?

• Generally, merit and range adjustments are automatically posted to your account.

o These transactions are called “Costing Transactions”.

o Works for transactions processed on merit rosters.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 61

If it wasn’t funded...

• If your merit/range funding was not received, initiate a DaFIS document to receive funding from central account.

o Base Budget Documentso Current Budget Documents

What are the key steps for balancing my staffing list?

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 62

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 63

When someone new comes...

New Position

• Salary Commitment:o Add new salary in PPS

• Rebudget funds from turnover savings accounts:

o Create a base budget with FTE (you do not have a provision established)

Replacing a Budgeted Position

• Salary Commitment:o Add new salary in PPSo End provision if one exists

• Rebudget funds from turnover savings accounts:o Create a base budget to offset

the difference in salary

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 64

When they leave...

• Salary commitment:o Add a provision if you intend on replacing the

position.

• Rebudget from turnover savings account:o Create a base budget to offset the difference in

salary.- Budgeted salary to new estimated salary.

o Budget must equal your provision amount.

3 Separate Sources to Review

• Data Source 1: Base Budget Adjustments

• Data Source 2: Provision Actions

• Data Source 3: Personnel Actions

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 76

Data Source 1: Base Budget

Review your base budget for:

• Actions effecting employee pay o Ranges, merits, reclassifications and equity

increases.

• Funding for new positions

• Deleting funding for permanently vacated positions

• Erroneous FTE entries on DaFIS documents.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 77

More base budget issues...

• Salary differences between:o Provision and new salaryo Exiting salary and new provision

• For these actions;o Compare annual salary / provision amount to base

budget augmentations,o Prepare BB document to adjust funding.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 78

Data Source 2: Provision Actions

Adjust the provision database for:

• Positions vacated and not filled immediatelyo Add a provision.

• Provisions filled during the yearo Add end dates to those provisions.

• Provisions being removed from the budgeto Add end dates to those provisions.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 79

Data Source 3: Personnel Actions

Review and adjust the Payroll / Personnel System for...

• Distributions where the FTE field is incorrect.

• Incorrect end-dates on distributions.

• Incorrect object codes on distributions (e.g., SUBG instead of SUBS).

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 80

Tip of the Day

• Walk through each action person by person. o Helps to know where to concentrate your

efforts.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 81

And.. We have tools

• Staffing List checklist will help you walk through the 3 Data Sources.

• Staffing List Balancing Form.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 82

Other Tools you will need

• Last balanced Staffing List

• Recent Staffing List

• Access the Payroll Personnel System (PPS)

• Access to Payroll/Personnel Decision Support

• Bag of Chocolates

• Funding matrix

• Local funding policies

• Costing Table

• Access to DaFIS TP

• Open Provision Forms

You mentioned the balancing form…Let’s review how it works!

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 83

Balancing form review

• Four Parts1. Balance information

Where you enter your beginning balance from the current staffing list

2. Base Budget Adjustments

List information to use on Base Budget transactions in DaFIS

3. Provision actions

List information to add or remove a provision in provision database

4. Personnel actions List changes to be done in PPS

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 84

Balancing form review

• Remember when filling out the form that……o You are balancing your Base Budget to PPS + Provision

entries.

o PPS and provision entries may require you to enter a dollar amount on the form if it is a FTE or end date change in PPS.

- Why? If the FTE or end date is incorrect then your dollar amount is incorrect. You need the figure to show that your entry will balance your account.

Resource Management and Planning & Payroll Division 85

Balancing form review

o Exception to FTE rule! - If the FTE is left blank in PPS the

system assumes it was 1.00 FTE and calculates the Gross Amount using that number.

- In this case, you would just need to enter the FTE to balance.

• Deans’ offices/departments are responsible for funding first 12 months.

o Regardless of when the off-scale payment begins.

o If fiscal years are crossed, prepare a CB to return extra funds to central account.

• DPPS increment is treated like off-scale as far as funding to/from the central upgrade account, but the unit does not have to pay the first year cost.

Off-scale Example:If off-scale = $2,000/year starting 3/1/11, then…

o BB document is done 3/1/10 for FY 2010-11 from central off-scale account to department account for $2,000.

- Remember a BB is to setup the next year funding.

o CB document is not done for FY 2010-11. Department pays out of their account (4 months of commitment).
