> Effort Certification must be completed for those of you who
> receive pay from a WBS Element (R account). Previously,
> through December 31, 2001 this certification was completed on
> a paper form. Beginning with January 2002,
> the certification must be done by an electronic form that is
> an IRIS record
> of that certification. However, this has only become
> available for use in the IRIS system. Most people will be
> able to certify their effort by a web site. Some people
> however will need this certification entry done
> by the departmental specialist (bookkeeper) in their department.
>
> So that you may complete this process, we are offering a
> training session for Effort Certification on the Web
> and Effort Certification Entry thru IRIS. Should you fail to
> complete this certification, your restricted accounts will
> not correctly record the salary and benefits. The salary will
> automatically default to the current distribution from the
> payroll records. In the past, the paper forms did not
> directly effect the true costing. However, in IRIS this is
> not the case. It is most important that this certification of
> time be completed before year end to properly record cost
> associated with payroll.
>
> We strongly urge that Department Specialist (bookkeeper) to
> attend this training.
>
> The time and location for this training will be:
>
> 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 20th in Room 110
> in Fletcher Hall.
>
> Another training session is scheduled for that afternoon in
> the same room
> from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
>
> Please call me at 754-4467 should you have any questions.
> Again, It is important that you and the departmental
> specialist attend one of these sessions.
