Here are your tips for the week of December 10:
Tip 1: Did you know that chief business officers can now deny requested roles or business units individually on an access request?
- Chief Business Officers can now “deny” requested roles or business units individually and still approve the request at large. This prevents the entire request from being denied and helps to eliminate re-work. Details can be found in this training guide.
Tip 2: Need help determining why an expense report has a budget exception?
- Need help determining why an expense report has a budget exception? Use query UGA_TE_ER_BUDGET_ERRORS to help you out!
- For help resolving other transactional budget exceptions, the following KK queries can also be of assistance:
- UGA_KK_DEPT_EXP_REV_BALS (will show budget balance for expenditures and revenues for use with non-sponsored projects).
- UGA_KK_PROJECT_BUDGET_BALANCE (will show budget balance for sponsored projects).
- UGA_KK_PARENT_EXP_REV_BALS_SUM (will show available balance for parent department group. Enter what you are trying to charge and it will give you the budget balance for the parent group).
Tip 2+: Entering and/or Managing Time During the Holidays?
- Employees: Pay From Schedule employees will need to enter their time in a different way during pay periods that include a holiday or leave request – and the first three pay periods on OneUSG Connect include holiday hours. To view a tutorial on entering your Pay from Schedule time when a holiday is already populated onto your timecard, click HERE to access the Training Library. You can also navigate to this tutorial in the Training Library under OneUSG Connect (HR/Payroll) Topics > Employee Self Service > Other ESS Tutorials.
- Supervisors and Time & Absence Approvers: Do you have employees that work over the holidays? If so, your employee can either be paid for the hours worked in addition to the holiday hours or you may change the holiday hours populated on the timesheet to deferred holiday time if your employees are going to defer the holiday to take at a later date. Supervisors can view how to do this process in the tutorials in the Training Library under OneUSG Connect (HR/Payroll) Topics > Manager Self Service > Other MSS Tutorials. Time & Absence Approvers can view how to do this in the Training Library under OneUSG Connect (HR/Payroll) Topics > Time & Absence Approvers > Other Time & Absence Approver Tutorials. You can access the Training Library HERE.

Known Issues and Enhancements: Check the Known Issues Resource Page to stay current on the latest known issues and planned project enhancements.
We are committed to the enhancement of the UGA Budget and Financial Management System and must also successfully integrate the systems with the new HR/Payroll system called OneUSG Connect which we begin using in December. To accomplish this, we need to shift priorities from Financial System enhancements to Financial and HR/Payroll system integrations.
In January 2019, we will first focus on stabilizing the Finance and HR/Payroll integrations and then re-prioritize and return focus to the enhancement workload. Please be aware that only enhancements that have been reviewed, approved, and scheduled will appear on the website.
