This document is to provide campus users with a list of frequently asked questions regarding LCD.
General
The biggest difference is the first step. Instead of campuses loading the SCO Pay Tape, the SCO Pay Tape Load will be handled centrally by System Wide Human Resources (SWHR).
Another change is the Expenditure adjustments will now have a preliminary view flag.
Go to the CSU LCD Processing Flags page and enter your campus company and Pay Tape Period.
Navigation: Menu > Payroll for North America > CUS Labor Cost Distribution > CSU LCD Process > CSU LCD Processing Flags
SWHR is aware of the urgency of this process and will do their best to process as soon as the file is available.
A listserv of campus users will receive an email with their campus count.
Campuses will be responsible for submitting who they want for their campus.
The CSU Check Creation Warning Messages do exist currently in production and will remain the same in CHRS.
The CSU_LCD_JOB_DTL
record is dynamically created every month by the CSULCD15 App Engine program (the first half of the CSU Create Paycheck Data Job, prior to CSULCD20).
Currently there are no plans to change the ESP process.
The table below shows the order in which the LCD Distribution process tries to find the correct combo code to distribute funds to. If no Combo Code is assigned on the Paycheck Creation Error Online Page, the LCD Distribution program (CSULCD40) tries Account Code Levels 2-9 from the table below. The CSU Distribution program will take the first Combo Code it can find, and once a Combo Code is found, it will not continue with the subsequent steps. If a Combo Code is still not assigned in the CSU Distribution program, it should be assigned manually using the CSU Distribution Errors online page.
ACCT_CD_LVL | Description |
1 | Paycheck Creation Error Online Page (before CSULCD40) |
2 | Time and Labor |
3 | Additional Pay (Immediate Pay or PIP transactions) |
4 | Job Earnings Distribution Page (Only checked if earnings code = REG) |
5 | Job Data Page |
6 | Department Budget Table – Appointment |
7 | Department Budget Table – Position |
8 | Department Budget Table – Position Pool |
9 | Department Budget Table – Department |
10 | Distribution Error Online Page (after CSULCD40) |
11 | Distribution Override Online Page (after CSULCD40) |
Time & Labor entries come in via the TL_PAYABLE_TIME
record. The campus then must run the CSU TL Earnings Distribution process (CSUTL09A.SQR) for that data to get populated into the CSU_TL_ERN_DIST
record. From there, Paycheck Create program (CSULCD20.SQR) picks up the Combo Code from the CSU_TL_ERN_DIST
record. For Additional Pay, that gets entered on the Additional Pay page into the ADDL_PAY_DATA
record, which should also get picked up in the Paycheck Create program (CSULCD20.SQR).
Yes, the functionality in CHRS will be the same as it is in 9.0.
It is recommended that the Combo Code Sync process be ran each month right before you begin monthly LCD processing
