Are encumbrances required for employee travel?
There will be no encumbrance for employee reimbursements object class (BB) except during the Accounts Payable Period. Reimbursements will be from the BB object class. In addition, there will be no encumbrance for those “contract employees” (CC object class) paid through HR/CMS based upon the SS-8 process. Expenses for these individuals will be paid through HR/CMS with the CC object codes. The standard “predictive” payroll reports can be used by departments to monitor expenditures. Departments can also use the Commonwealth Information Warehouse to project contract employee expenditures and compare these to contract amounts.
