Agenda • Payroll Reminders • New/Revised Payroll Forms • UMB Leave Inquiry page • UMB EFP Workflow Status page
Payroll Reminders • W-4 forms • Many are returned to us from CPB and employees suffer when W-4 is not processed as they expect • Typical errors: • Box 2. Enter COUNTY (don’t leave blank or enter Country) • Box 3. Check off marital status • Box 5. If declaring exemption from State taxes do not write Exempt in this box- complete section 8
Payroll Reminders • Schedules • Must never, EVER be entered retroactively • Must match the Job Data scheduled hours • For employees who are less than 40 hours YOU must enter a new schedule • Do not overwrite existing schedule- always add a new line
Payroll Reminders • Payroll Advances • Show each pay period separately • Make sure forms are signed by both the department representative AND the employee before sending • Attach the Payroll Adjustment form
Payroll Reminders • Update 7/1/05 EFPs • Many active EFPs still have 7/1/05 funding end dates • The PCAs are accumulating some big dollars

New/Revised Payroll Forms • Forms reminders • Always use the employee’s full name- do not use initials • Make sure the Empl ID and Record numbers are correct • Forms should be completed on-line or typed whenever possible (or at least very legible) • One month grace period for using old forms- after that you will get “do-overs”
