 Subject: MASSMAIL - Your Pay in the New UI-Integrate Human Resources/P

From: Kathe M. Shinham, Assistant Vice President for Business and Finance
Subject: Your Pay in the New UI-Integrate Human Resources/Payroll System
 
The University is implementing the UI-Integrate Human Resources/Payroll 
system beginning with the January 2004 pay dates.  The new system allows 
employees to view Web-based earnings statements three working days before 
payday. Employees paid bi-weekly may view their earnings statement online 
beginning January 9 and employees paid monthly may view their earnings 
statement online beginning January 12.  The Web-based earnings statements 
are available for all employees, including those who elected to receive 
paper earnings statements on payday, in NESSIE at:
<https://nessie.uihr.uillinois.edu/cf/comp/index.cfm?
Item_id=1055&rlink=674>

To access your online earnings information, you will need your 
Bluestem/Campus Network ID. If you have not already set up your ID, 
information on how to do so is available from the CITES Web page at: 
<http://www.cites.uiuc.edu/netid/index.html>

You may notice a difference in the amount of your net pay.  Net pay 
differences may be related to a change in either salary (i.e., gross pay), 
tax withholdings, or other deductions.  You can determine the cause of a 
difference by comparing your current and former earnings statements.

Net pay differences related to a change in gross pay can occur because of 
a change in salary or the hours reported by hourly paid employees.  
Irreconcilable salary differences should be reported to your HR/Payroll 
representative.  

Net pay differences related to changes in tax withholdings or other 
deductions are typical for the first pay date of a new calendar year and 
may include new charitable deductions, changes in benefits enrollment or 
coverage, or variations in life insurance premiums due to change in age or 
salary.  The UI-Integrate methodology for calculating withholdings and 
other deductions (i.e., parking deductions, union dues, involuntary 
deductions such as garnishments and payment of state debts, or life 
insurance calculations) may cause minor changes in your net pay.  Please 
refer to the information published on the OBFS Web site for more details 
about these differences and additional information to assist you with the 
new online statements and calculations, including an earnings statement 
sample: <http://www.obfs.uillinois.edu/obfshome.cfm?
level=2&Path=earnings&XMLData=bannerchanges>

If you have any questions about changes in tax withholdings or other 
deductions, please contact your HR/Payroll representative. Your HR/Payroll 
representative will work with your College/ Administrative unit office, 
campus Human Resources office, and the Payroll Service Office to clarify 
the amounts on your statement or make any necessary adjustments.
