Elevating Cougs for payroll personnel: at a glance
Employees performing payroll duties at WSU work hard throughout each month to ensure the staff and faculty in their departments are paid accurately and on-time. Employees holding varying finance and HCM security roles perform payroll-related tasks in Workday each pay period, including:
- Entering, correcting, and approving time and absence
- Assigning costing allocations
- Performing payroll accounting adjustments
- Managing payroll cutoff
- Reporting for payroll
Employees who perform payroll tasks often do so in addition to other finance and HCM responsibilities. The 2023 Elevating Cougs conference offers payroll personnel the opportunity to develop both technical and soft skills to help them manage their payroll-related tasks, reduce the stress of payroll cutoff, and balance competing duties.
The Workday Success Stories and Developing as a Coug tracks offer the following sessions geared toward helping payroll personnel:
- How to Make Payroll Cutoff a Stress Free Deadline
- Managing Your People Paid on Grants
- Calendar Planning & Best Practices
- Navigating Workday Like a Pro
- Delegations in Workday
- Managing Workload
Payroll personnel can get started now by registering for the Elevating Cougs conference and exploring session details in the conference schedule. They can also review key Workday training for payroll on the Modernization Website.
