POSITION: 

• FTE and Work Period: The system uses the annualization factor of the Work Period in combination with the Standard Hours to dynamically calculate FTE. 
• Compensation Rate: Uses Standard Hours to calculate rate of pay. 
• Faculty Fraction: Must be populated if FTE cannot be converted into a valid PIMS fraction of 2 digits/2 digits.  Overrides FTE and Standard Hours 

JOB: 

• FTE and Work Period: The system uses the annualization factor of the Work Period in combination with the Standard Hours to dynamically calculate FTE. 
• Faculty Fraction:  Must be populated if FTE cannot be converted into a valid PIMS fraction of 2 digits/2 digits.  Overrides FTE and Standard Hours. 
• For Academic Personnel:  The Faculty Fraction is populated through the “Contract Upload” process, or it can be entered manually. The Faculty Fraction is required for the PPT and the WTU Accumulation Process.  If the “Contract Upload” process is not utilized, and the Faculty Fraction is not entered, it could possibly impact the monthly compensation rate in Job Data, which is derived from the FTE if no faculty fraction is present. 

Required.

Defaults to 0.00 when field left blank.
