ePAR Status Update

By Carla Ponzio

Fifty percent of ePAR users were trained during the month of June, and the remaining users will be trained this month. The HRMS office is currently in the process of scheduling the remaining sessions.

Feedback has been positive, and constructive, as of the end of June over 950 ePARs were processed. The quickest approval time has been 2 minutes, the longest has been 21 days. HRMS is working with Human Resources on an ePAR help guide that will be published shortly.

The ePAR Project will soon change names to eFORMS, as we start the next phase of the project and work on additional functionality. eFORMS will have a home page for all electronic forms. The eFORMS Project will consist of automating the following forms:
  • The Position Request form (PRF) will be called ePRF
  • The Person of Interest form (POI) will be called ePOI
  • The Reallocation form (RAF) will be called eRAF (this will initially handle suspense reallocations.)
  • The electronic I-9 will be called eI-9
Look for future newsletters for more information on the eFORMS Project.
