Run PPT for New Hire

Overview

This job aid shows Workforce Administrators how to run the Personnel Payroll Transfer (PPT process) for new hires.

Background

  • The PPT process generates the PPT form for one or more employees.
  • Campuses use the information on the PPT form to ensure that CHRS Job Data is aligned with the Personnel/Payroll Information Management system (PIMS) of the State Controller’s Office.
  • Run the PPT process after you Add an Employee (see the Add an Employee job aid).
  • You can generate PPT forms in batch or for single employees.

Before you start

Ensure that the employee’s PPT status is Pay Ready on the CSU Job tab of Job Data.

Step 4: Review the error message.

  • Errors are typically missing information in Job or Person data. The error message usually indicates what you need to correct.
CSU PPT Error messages page. The error message reads: Retirement System Account Code (Item 505) is a required field. It cannot be blank.

Step 5: Correct the error, then rerun the PPT process.

Hire date field 921 is blank

Exception data showing the 921 field is blank.
  • When you generate the PPT report on the same day as the employee is entered into Job Data, the hire date field (921) is blank because CSU Hire Date Process has not run.
  • The CSU Hire Date process runs each night, so if you run the PPT process the next day, this field will be completed.
  • However, if you need to have the field populated immediately, you can run the CSU Hire Date process manually.

Step 1: Run the CSU Hire Date process.

  • Menu > Workforce Administration > CSU Workforce Admin Process > CSU Date Tracking > Run CSU Hire Date Calculation
Navbar button

Step 2: Run the process for your campus.

  1. Select Single Business Unit.
  2. Select your campus.
  3. Select the date to include the new hire date.
