Timekeeping Replacement Project: System Functionality

Will student employees have to select their different jobs on their timesheet?

All student employees will be using the Time Reporting System (TRS). In TRS each unique job has its own timesheet to fill out.

Supervisors will only see the timesheet for the job that they supervise.

Will Friendly Names transfer over to the new timekeeping systems? Can one add new Friendly Names?

The Friendly Names application is no longer needed with our new timekeeping systems.

In CalKronos, transfers to other work locations appear in the Transfer column of the employee's timecard. Transfers to other jobs, such as a lead worker, are shown in the Assignment column on the timecard. CalKronos employees who use time clocks can select their work location (listed as Cost Centers) or select their secondary job on the time clock when they Punch in. For TRS, each job has its own timesheet, so employees with multiple jobs can simply use the timesheet for the job for which they...

TRS captures reported hours and generates the corresponding Earn Codes (e.g., TOC=16) when the employee enters Time On Call (TOC) hours. The UCPath system then uses these Earn Codes to process the pay by applying the appropriate pay rate to calculate the final amount.

For example, if a TX employee reports 16 hours of Time On Call, TRS sends the TOC=16 code to UCPath, which then converts it into the correct payment for the employee.

The rate applied to the hours TRS sends for TOC is calculated at the UCPath level, and the rates used can be found in the...
