ePAR Production Pilot
By Carla Ponzio
We are so pleased that CLASS agreed to
participate in the Staff ePAR Production
Pilot. Due to the large number of ePAR users
in the Division, training for the group was
split into 3 classes. The first part of the
training was spent on the use of all four
forms and the remainder of the class was
hands on practice. The forms are:
1. Hire Form
Use
this form to hire new employees,
rehire an employee, transfer an
employee into your department or to
add an additional job.
2. Job Change
Use
this form to edit an employee’s job
record.
3. Change Status
Use
this form to terminate, retire,
enter a leave of absence or return
of an employee.
4. Additional Pay
Use to
submit additional pay for an
employee.
The ePAR functionality in PeopleSoft was
implemented for CLASS on May 30, 2008. This
started the phased roll out for the rest of
the University of Houston.
We have created a new Employee Class in
PeopleSoft HR for Monthly Student Workers.
Employees in the positions that require
student status who are exempt from the
provisions of the FLSA, are paid monthly,
and are not insurance-eligible should be
assigned the Empl Class I. For a complete
list of empl classes go to
http://www.uh.edu/hrms/training/HRMSmaterials.htm
select eForms. Graduate students that are
hired on an overload assignment need to have
the Graduate Student Overload form signed
and attached to the ePAR for processing.
These graduate student overloads are routed
to Graduate Studies for their approval.
The HR security request form
http://www.uh.edu/hrms/forms/PeopleSoftHRSecurityFormUH.doc
has been updated for ePAR authorization. If
you have new employees that will be part of
the ePAR workflow process please select the
check box on the form for “ePAR user” and
indicate what role they should be assigned.
