*Note: We will be offering a quick pay run for the SUNY (IFR) payroll beginning January 2016. The SUNY payroll will continue to run after the last biweekly payroll of every month, but on those months that the payroll is early in the month, you will have the ability to run a quick pay to generate additional charges for a SUNY employee. This run will be the last Wednesday of that month. Click here for directions on how to process a SUNY(IFR) quick pay.

Operating Location HR/PR staff |
Instructions are also available to assist in the input of the form into Oracle. When processing a change to an existing appointment, the Research Foundation operations manager or designee must ensure that the information being changed is accurate. |
The SUNY HR Retro Process runs every night to create the SUNY Earnings Retro element for elements added with "Yes" selected for "Retro Required." Campus staff can view new elements the next day in the HR module. |
Operating Location HR/PR staff |
Tip: If the SUNY payroll run for the month has processed, and you missed this you need to load a retro element in the next month. |
After the last biweekly payroll is run for the month (normally on a Tuesday), the SUNY Payroll and LD processes are run on the scheduled night, which is normally the Thursday night after the last biweekly payroll. All SUNY Earnings and SUNY Earnings Retro elements are processed to create a Statement of Earnings in the HR module. The labor distributions are created, per the charging instructions in the labor schedules. The following weekend, costing of the IFR or Cost Sharing expenditures to the Grants module occurs will automatically. |

Income Fund Reimbursable (IFR) - The Research Foundation (RF) reimburses the state through the "Income Fund Reimbursable" (IFR) process for the cost of the salaries and associated fringe benefits of State University of New York (SUNY) employees who remain on the state payroll while performing services for RF-administered sponsored projects.
Note: The RF’s personnel policies do not apply to SUNY staff members because they are not RF employees.
Cost Sharing - A SUNY employee may work on an RF-administered sponsored project. If that person is not compensated directly or if SUNY is not reimbursed for the person's effort on the project, this can be considered cost sharing.
