Final Pay

Final Pay aims to improve and streamline final pay processing using delivered UCPath final pay and navigation collection functionality.

Why are we implementing this project?

This project will:

  • Streamline and reduce the effort to complete final pay activities
    • Increases final pay accuracy by reducing manual entry and eliminating comment fields
    • Increases data integrity by using UCPath data to drive final pay
    • Improves leave, accrual and retirement accuracy (ensures rehired employees have accurate leave, accrual and retirement information)
  • Improve the Off-boarding process
    • Ensures critical information is gathered such as employees personal email and home address (allows former employees to access UCPath for historical W-2 and pay information)
    • Improves pay accuracy by inactivating out-of-date additional pay and deductions (streamlines rehiring employees)
    • Improves employee information security by deactivating direct deposit accounts

How will this impact me?

Represented employees that are leaving the University will receive their final paycheck within 72 hours from when the departments submit the appropriate transactions.

What do transactors need to do to prepare for this project?

Phase 1: E-078 Updates

As of December 5, 2022, The Payroll Request (E-078) form for Final Pay has been updated with new data fields that will enhance final pay accuracy, timeliness, and replace the template previously used by transactors to capture this information in the initiator comments field.
