All ePAFs require department and HumanResources approval (except Source of Fund ePAFs). Each ePAF has been assigned an ApprovalCategory that determines the required levels of approval. Finally, the ePAF is approved by thePayroll Office and applied to the employee’s job record. If there are problems with the ePAF, a designated approver can select Return For Correction and require the originator to correct orrecreate the ePAF. The ePAF must be completed, approved and applied in a timely manner so the job record can be updated prior to payroll calculation.Timely completion of an ePAF is essential to help the Payroll Office pay an employee accurately and on time.
