Instructions

Location

3-digit campus location number (i.e., 020)

Action

1. Check "New Appt" if the person has never had an IFR/CS assignment before.
2. Check "Appt Change" if this is a change to an existing IFR/CS assignment.
3. Effective Date: this should be the date the change to the IFR/CS record is effective. For example, if the person is receiving an increase in their SUNY salary effective 01-OCT-2002 this is the date you should enter.

IFR/CS Appointment Period

This is the period that the award will be reimbursing SUNY for the person's salary or the period the person is cost sharing on an award. This is NOT the period for which the person is paid through SUNY (i.e., academic or calendar year), These dates may be the same but do not have to be. For example, Dr. Smith is appointed at SUNY for an academic period 26-AUG-2002 through 16-MAY-2003. Either SUNY is being reimbursed or s/he is cost sharing for the time he is expending on an RF award for the fall semester only. The dates for the IFR Appointment Period are:

1. Start Date 26-AUG-2002
2. End Date: 27-DEC-2002

Instructions

Annual SUNY Salary

Person's annual salary on the SUNY payroll

Beg Date of SUNY Appt Year

Date SUNY salary starts - in the example from above Dr. Smith's date would be 26-AUG-2002. If this were a calendar year (12 month) appointment the start date would be the date of the institution's calendar year(i.e., 01-SEP-2002, or 01-JAN-2002),

End Date of SUNY Appt Year

Date SUNY salary starts - as above Dr Smith's date would be 16-MAY-2003. If this were a calendar year (12 month) appointment the end date would be a year from the start date (i.e., from above 31-AUG-2003 or 31-DEC-2003).

Retro Required?

Select Yes if the monthly payroll in which the effective date of the new appointment or change falls, has already past. For example, the effective date of Dr. Smith's appointment is 26-AUG-2002, if the monthly payroll for August has already run then retro would be required. Select No if the monthly payroll in which the effective date of the new appointment or change falls, has not run. To determine if the payroll has run refer to the Payroll and Labor Distribution Schedule for RF and SUNY.

Retro Begin Date

The start date the system should use when calculating the retro amount. This should correspond with the first date of the new appointment or change (from Dr. Smith example 26-AUG-2002).

Retro End Date

The last date the system should use when calculating the retro amount. This should be the last date of the prior payroll period. For example, if Dr. Smith's form is being completed in September then the retro end date should be 31-AUG-2002. If the form was being completed in October then the retro end date should be 30-SEP-2002, and so on.
