Overview

 

A Payroll Expense Transfer is primarily used to transfer payroll expense from one account to another, or to redistribute the expense amongst two or more accounts. Secondary uses are to correct Object Code, Personnel Control Code (PCN), Earnings Type (regular, vacation, sick, etc), and Employee Related Expenses (ERE). A PET does not affect the employee, the amount of the pay, or any deductions or contributions made.

 

The PET Program is the application used to create and process a PET.

Departments must be signed up (PET Unit Setup Form), and individual user's must request access (PET Access Form). The program is downloaded from the web onto the user's PC (Downloads).

 

Payroll transactions, that appear on the Payroll Expense Listing (PEL) are downloaded from the University's Payroll System (PSOS) into the PET database.

 

From there, users select the payroll record to be changed. Once the changes are made and the PET created, it is ready for approval. After approval, the transaction is posted to the Payroll System, then to PSOS and subsequently to FRS.
