JCPS
Time and Attendance
Revised 5/8/2015
The security of Payroll Time & Attendance is role based,
which means that you need to be in the appropriate role in
order to utilize the system.
If you cannot login to the system, or if you are unable to see
some of the options presented in training, you may not be in
the correct role group. Contact 3552 or submit a heat ticket.
Overview
Login
Launch Internet Explorer. Click Employees. Select Time & Attendance from the Quick Clicks drop down menu.
Before entering your Username and Password, make sure the Caps Lock key is off. Enter the same username and password that you use when logging into the network.
If you are unable to login to the Payroll Time & Attendance system, please contact 3552 or submit a Heat Ticket.
The first page of Time & Attendance is the Home screen. The announcement section will contain information regarding location deadlines and payroll processing information, including information on special processes such as Start-Up Pay and Parent Teacher Conference Pay. The “Quick Links” section contains valuable and helpful resources such as the Payroll Correction Memo template, Direct Deposit Form, and MUNIS Extra Service Forms, etc.
Home
Quick Links
To see Employee Calendars or a particular School Calendar,
click on either of the Calendar links. Click on the Direct Deposit Form, Kentucky Tax Withholding,
Indiana Tax Withholding, or Federal Tax Withholding link
to view and print the form.
Important
It is important that time is reported based on the employee’s actual work schedule.
Carefully review the employee’s base days and hours per day for accuracy on the Regular
Full Day screen. If you need to make adjustments to their actual base days or hours per
day, you must contact the Human Resources Department immediately, so the change can
be made in MUNIS.
Marking an employee as present when he/she does not report to work is falsification
of payroll time reporting.
In the upper right hand corner of each screen is a small button that looks like a set of eyeglasses. This is the Search Employees button. It allows you to navigate to the Employee Inquiry Screen.
To look up information on an employee, click the Search Employees button. Enter the employee’s last name in the Last Name field, and click the Search button to bring up all of the employee active and inactive positions. If you are searching a common name (i.e. John Smith), either use the employee
number or make sure that you know the last four of the digits of the employee’s SSN because the search is likely to bring back pages of John Smith. The only way you can identify your John Smith will be by the last for of SSN, job class, location, etc. One you have identified your John Smith, click on the name (hyper link) to navigate to that employee’s inquiry screen.
Time & Attendance Employee Inquiry
The name hyperlink to take you to the following page. It will display all of the employee’s active and inactive positions with JCPS. Start and End dates are displayed on the main inquiry screen along with Location, Bargaining Unit, Job Class, and Job Description. Click on the hyperlink for the position that you want the detailed information on to navigate to the Detailed Employee Inquiry Screen.

.
Exercise: Using the Search Employee, Find Yourself and View Your Employee Inquiry Screen in T&A.
Regular
All payroll reporting with the exception of Extra Service is prepared through the Regular Menu.
Full Day tab is used to assign regular employee attendance codes for a pay period. The codes
available depend upon the employee’s position. All employees must be assigned ten days of attendance for a pay period.
Full Day
The dates in the pay period are listed above the reporting area. If an escrow or a paid holiday is part of a pay period, it will appear automatically in the correct date fields. Employees may have days marked as “Escrow” (non-scheduled) within the two week payroll period. These codes appear in light gray. You cannot add or delete pre-populated attendance.
If you find Escrow days have been assigned or omitted in error, the employee calendar assignment needs to be changed in MUNIS. Please contact your Payroll clerk to report the problem.
Full Day
Assign all non-present attendance codes (sick, personal, emergency…) prior to using the Present button. Depending upon which calendar the employee is assigned , the following could be choices in the attendance drop down box:
Full Day
After all other codes have been entered, click the Present button to populate all remaining days as present. The Present button does not overwrite any code already assigned.
The Present button allows you to assign an employee present for every day in the selected pay period.
Remember to save after every change
.
Full Day
The Comments Button on the Full Day Screen should be used to add comments for all Dock and
Excused days. Click on the button and add the date and reason associated with the Dock or Excused day. Comments can be added for any day that needs additional information.
Using Attendance Codes Properly
Please remember that when selecting any of the EXCUSED or DOCK options that you should enter the
date and reason in the comment section (please see example below). The comment section is for the entire two week pay period, and therefore the date and reason is required for each date on which an
excused or dock attendance code is selected. For example, if an employee is marked dock two days in the pay period, the person entering payroll must mark those days with the appropriate dock attendance type and they must type the dates of the dock and the detailed reason in the comments section (for example –
religious holiday for one day and court for another day). When using dock because someone is sick and
out of sick time , please note the dates and the reason as out of sick days. These comments enable Human Resources to track exactly what occurred and whether follow-up documentation is needed.
Using Attendance Codes Properly
Part-time employees assigned to your location should only
be marked present for the days on which they are actually
working. The other days should be marked as Dock Other.
If an employee loads out to your location who no longer
works at your location, you must mark them Dock
New/Transfer.
If an employee resigns, on the days they do not work, you
must mark them as Dock Separation.
School Based Codes for Excused 57 Workshop
The following codes are available in Time and Attendance to pay substitutes for teachers that are reported absent 57
Excused-Workshop or are extra help in the building. These are to be used when a school based budget is responsible for payment. You will only see these codes if they are appropriate for your cost center. If there are other school based codes that are needed for other grant funds please contact [email protected] or [email protected] them to be added. Other options for specific workshops that are paid by Non-School Based Budgets are set up and available to the applicable cost centers per approval from Grant and/or Central Office Directors. Information on the Description for these codes will come from the Grant /Central Offices. The sub center will no longer arrange your sub and pay for sub. The school will make all arrangements.

Full Day
Additional information about an employee (i.e., calendar days, accrued sick/personal days, etc.), appears in a pop up box when you roll your mouse over the employee’s name. Some employees listed on the Full Day screen are underlined and appear in blue. This indicates that the employee is eligible for Overtime, Extra time, and Dock time.
If you click on a blue underlined employee name, you will be navigated to the 14 Day screen where you can assign or edit attendance information. If an employee is eligible for these pay types but is not listed, contact Human Resources.
Full Day
14 Day
The 14 Day screen is only available for
employees eligible for Extra time, Overtime, and Dock time. If you need to return to the Full Day screen, click the To Full Day tab.
The 14 Day tab has two purposes:
• to enter extra, over, and dock time for the current pay period.
• to enter extra, over, and dock for the previous pay period.
Remember…
14 Day
Employees do not qualify for Overtime until they have worked 40 hours per week. For example, the employee below, whose Base Pay is 6 hours per day, worked 4 additional hours every day. Report as 10 hours of extra time until 40 hours are reached and then 10 hours of overtime.
This will open the employee’s 14 Day screen for adjustments.
You can only adjust the previous pay period.
Extra/Over/Dock time
are the only
adjustments allowed. Dock time cannot be entered for days that have Dock codes used on
the Full Day attendance screen.
If you click on the 14 Day tab, you must select the employee whose payroll will be
adjusted. Scroll through the names, locate the employee, highlight the name, and click the
Submit button.
14 Day
Adjust Previous Pay – 14 Day Screen
If you need to make adjustments to the Base Time, contact Human Resources. If you need to adjust an attendance code (i.e., Personal to Sick) or time reported, use the Payroll Correction Memo found under Quick Links on the home page of Time & Attendance. Complete this form and send to your Payroll Clerk.
The screen shot below shows Pay Period Ending: 09/17/2010 (Adjusting). To make an adjustment to the previous pay period in the 14 day screen, enter the time that should have been reported. For example, if the employee should have had 3 hours of extra time reported on 9/16/11, but only had 1 hour reported on 9/16/11, enter the full 3 hours that should have been reported. Time & Attendance will check to see what has already been reported previously for this date and subtract the 1 hour from the 3 hours to give the employee 2 additional hours due for this date on the current pay period. In other words, the system does all of the subtraction and addition for you. If you enter 2 hours on the 14 day screen instead of 3, the employee will only be paid for 1 additional hour. The Previous Pay Period Adjustment Report must be printed, signed in blue ink by the Principal/Department Head and included with your payroll reports. See page 37 for Adjustment Report instructions.
Special Pays:
Start Up Day & Parent Teacher Conference
Start Up Pay and Parent Teacher Conference Day Pay will be
reported as part of regular payroll during certain times of the
