Purpose
The following are instructions for processing payroll deductions for Federated Community Campaigns (SEFA) beginning in January 1999.
Payroll Offices must review authorization cards for completeness, accuracy and legibility of the items listed below.
- Federated Fund (SEFA) Code
Alphabetic and numeric lists of organizations approved by the Commissioner of General Services are attached to this bulletin. Agencies entering the Federated Fund (SEFA) Number are reminded to key only the pre-printed code that appears at the top right of the form. - Amount of Deduction
Ensure the employee has entered the amount he or she wishes to have deducted from each paycheck for the calendar year, not the total amount of the pledge. - Employee's Agency Code, Line Number, Social Security Number and Name
For data entry the employee=s social security number will be entered for the employee's ID. - The employee's signature is required to authorize the payroll deduction.
Payroll deductions for the 1999 campaign will begin in checks dated January 6, 1999 (Administration) and January 14, 1999 (Institution).
Direct Input to PaySR
Agencies must enter annual Federated Fund (SEFA) transactions into PaySR on the Gen Deduction Data (Agency) panel using the following instructions.
- After logging into PaySR, access the Gen Deduction Data (Agency) panel by Start - Compensate Employees - Maintain Payroll Data U.S. - Use - Gen Deduction Data (Agency) - Update/Display All.
- Enter the Social Security No. from the authorization card in the EmplID field of the Dialog Box and click OK.
- The employee=s ID (ID), employee record number (Empl Rcd#), and Name appear highlighted on the List box. Click Select.
- Determine if the employee already has a deduction record for the specific Federated Fund No. on the authorization card by scrolling through the deduction codes using the outside scroll bar.
- If a record with the same Federated Fund (SEFA) deduction code already exists, click on the top of the inner scroll bar, insert a row and continue with step 6.
- If there is not an existing row for this Federated Fund (SEFA) deduction code, click on the outer scroll bar, insert a row and continue with step 5.
- Deduction Code - select the correct deduction code for the Federated Fund (SEFA) on the authorization card from the drop down box.
- Effective Date - enter the effective date for the deduction to begin as follows:
- Administration (Lag) - December 10, 1998
- Institution (Lag) - December 17, 1998
- Administration (Current) - December 24, 1998
- Institution (Current) - December 31, 1998
- Deduction Calculation Routine - select Flat Amount from the drop down box.
- Deduction End Date - enter the deduction end date as follows:
- Administration (Lag) - December 8, 1999
- Institution (Lag) - December 15, 1999
- Administration (Current) - December 22, 1999
- Institution (Current) - December 29, 1999
- Flat/Addl Amount - enter the amount to be deducted from each biweekly paycheck.
- Click the Save button on the toolbar.
Changes
New employees or employees who wish to start or change a Federated Fund (SEFA) deduction may do so by completing a new authorization card. A payroll general deduction transaction should then be processed to start or change the deduction.
Transfers
OSC automatically continues Federated Fund (SEFA) deductions upon transfer from one agency to another. It is only necessary to obtain a new authorization card if the employee wants to contribute to a different Federated Fund (SEFA) Organization in the new agency.
Cancellations
To cancel the Federated Fund (SEFA) deduction the Payroll Office must enter a Deduction End Date. Cancellation Notices must be retained by the agency.
SEFA
All references to Federated Fund and United Way are in the process of being changed to State Employee Federated Appeal (SEFA).
