ASCENDER - Convert Payroll Frequency 5 (Bi-Monthly) to 6 (Monthly)

Created:
Reviewed:
Revised:

The purpose of this document is to guide you through the steps to convert a Payroll schedule from frequency 5 (Bi-Monthly) to 6 (Monthly). It is recommended that this conversion is processed during the month in which teachers receive their first paycheck (typically September). Therefore, all active employees should be in the current year payroll. During this process, employees' payroll information, job/contract information, payroll distributions, bank deposit information, extra duty pay information, deductions, and leave information will be converted.

This document assumes that you are familiar with the basic features of the ASCENDER Business System and have reviewed the ASCENDER Business Overview guide.

Some of the images and/or examples provided in this document are for informational purposes only and may not completely represent your LEA’s process.


Before You Begin

IMPORTANT:

  • To avoid data issues, only the individual who is performing this process should be logged on to the Payroll and Personnel applications; no one else should be logged on during the process.
  • DO NOT update payroll information (i.e. Hours/Pay Transmittals, Employee Leave, etc.) for the first pay date that will be processed in the new payroll frequency 6 until you are prompted to do so in this process.

❏ Prior to running this process, verify the following as applicable:

  • The most recent payroll runs and adjustments are posted and interfaced to Finance. This includes supplemental payroll runs.
  • TRS processing and employer reporting are complete. Non-OASDI, Child Nutrition, etc. interfaced to Finance.
  • TRS On Behalf
  • EOY Finance
