January
paychecks reflect slight formatting changes |
|
Tomorrow, January 31, is the first systemwide payroll for
all monthly-paid employees run by SAP. When employees receive their
paychecks, they might see some very slight differences. Rest assured,
your hard-earned money will all be there, but it might be reported in a
slightly different format from what you’ve seen in previous paystubs.
You might see some minor differences in the amounts because of a different
way of calculating taxes or rounding, but overall, there should not be a big,
noticeable change. The format changes are small, but they provide more
information showing exactly how much you were paid and where any withheld
money went. Here’s a snapshot
of what you’ll see. · “Person ID” now is
used as your employee identification number. · Filing status, as well as number
of exemptions/withholdings, is included. · Gross pay is shown, as well as the
total taxes and deductions subtracted to calculate net pay. · Payments or deposits to bank
account(s) are more clearly identified. · Taxes and other deductions are
more clearly identified. · Hours of used leave time are shown
as well as any remaining leave time.* *hours of used leave time reflect
those taken after January 1, 2008 |
