UPB - Initiating a Prior Underpayment Adjustment (PUA) for a Benefit Payout for Bi-Weekly Exempt or Academic (Monthly) Employees

PARIS, adjustment, separation, benefit payout, vacation, sick, PUA

If a bi-weekly exempt or academic employee is ending employment with the university, or changing to an employee class that is not benefits eligible, any vacation hours, compensable sick hours and earned compensable time must be paid out to the employee.

Before you begin the transaction in PARIS, confirm that all leave balances for the employee are accurate in Banner. Also start the separation transaction in the HR Front End (HRFE) application. This will give you the calculated weighted rate of pay to use in the PARIS adjustment transaction.
