OneSource wishes you the very best Thanksgiving! We appreciate all you do and we are so grateful for your support and partnership. Here are your tips for the week of November 19:
Tip 1: Don’t forget, the OneSource project will now be hosting Office Hours!
- Office Hours for the Budget and Financial Management Systems will be two hours in length, and one to three topics/modules will be offered each week. Each session will be held at Training & Development, Computer Lab K. A listing of sessions, as well as registration information, can be found here.
Tip 2: Do you have a student traveling? Not sure if a Travel Authority is needed?
- We can help! A student/s traveling for work related business or getting reimbursed for work-related expenses, are reimbursed through the expense module and will need a TA for travel. This is only if the travel is related to their job or job duties.
- A student/s traveling for education purposes in contrast and not related to their job, will need to register as a supplier and a payment request will need to be made on their behalf. There is no need for a TA to be created through the UGA Financial Management System for their travel.
Tip 2+: Need guidance on viewing and budgeting your Indirect Cost (IDC) return revenue?
- IDC return revenue and the corresponding charges can be viewed in this query: UGA_GM_DPT_IDC_REV.
- The Budget Office has published guidance on budgeting for IDC return. This information and additional detail on IDC return changes have been updated on the Indirect Cost Return resource page on the OneSource website.
- An example highlighting the differences between the old process (prior to July 1, 2018) and the new process (after July 1, 2018) is also include on the resource page.
Tip 2+++: Do you have a student worker, graduate assistant, retire-rehire, temporary employee, affiliate, etc. hiring in your department?
- Anyone initiating, approving, or managing these hires and positions after December 16th is encouraged to take the new UGAJobs training courses to learn the direct hire process.
- There are two versions of these new courses – a refresher if you have used UGAJobs before and a course for users brand new to UGAJobs. These are all offered via webinar for your convenience and are listed on the OneSource Training Resource Page.
Known Issues and Enhancements: Check the Known Issues Resource Pageto 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.
