4.1.2 Set up a New Unit or Location for Timesheets

Policy Statement

If you are involved in creating a new unit that will need to report employee time, that new unit must have its business need approved by University Accounting and Financial Reporting. Once the new unit is approved, it will be set up in the Finance module of Banner and available for use as a Time Sheet organization for time entry.

Procedure

To set up a new unit or location for paying employees:

1. Contact University Accounting and Financial Reporting to be set up in the Finance module of Banner.
2. Once the new unit is approved, it will be set up in the Finance module of Banner and available for use as a Time Sheet organization for time entry.
3. Ask your unit security contact to set your permissions in the Security Application.

   Every Time Sheet organization must have a Superuser, Time Approver, and an approval routing queue.

4. The Superuser assigns people to the routing queue in Banner.
5. When Steps 1 through 3 have been completed, submit and approve an HR Front End transaction to change the timesheet organization for each employee affected.
