This Quick Reference Guide (QRG) is designed to walk Payroll Costing Managers through the task of assigning a Worker Position Earning costing allocation for the Temp Service Fee when required. The Temp Service Fee cannot be allocated to a federal grant. When a Temp Worker’s wages are being costed to a federal grant, a separate Worker Position Earning costing allocation must be created so the fee can be charged to other worktags.

This Quick Reference Guide (QRG) is designed to walk users through the process(es) in Workday to ensure a new Cost Center is available to use in Adaptive Planning. When a new Cost Center is created in Workday, it is not immediately available in Adaptive Planning. The only way to get the Cost Center into Adaptive Planning is to complete a transaction. The preferred process is to enter any transaction that needs to be completed for the new Cost Center.

The Primary Gift will have a new attribute tab labeled “Named Professorship”

Any additional Gifts associated will be identified in the “Addition Data” tab on the Primary Gift

All Named Professorships will be flipped from being linked to a Basic Gift to the Workday Financials Gift Worktag. To preserve specific information for HCM during that flip, they have asked that we add a naming convention to the Named Professorships. 

Units will see the Primary Gift linked to the Named Professorship. When Gifts are linked to Named Professorships, the Gift Worktag gets a new “tab” on the Worktag landing page which will allow users to navigate back and forth between Gift and Named Professorship. This does not impact any accounting functionality; it's just to aid in navigation.

The 4100:  Federal Grants and Contract ledger account, is where grant revenue is posted. This will look different depending on Contract Line Type.  If the Grant is a Cost Reimbursable grant, you will see the amount in the 4100 ledger account line match the total expenditures including the F&A expenditures because this is the amount that will be reimbursed by the sponsor when invoiced by OSP. If the grant is a Fixed Amount grant, you will only see revenue matching the amount of the payment we received from the sponsor.

Your focus when working on a Grant Account Certification should be on certifying that the expenditures in the expenditure ledger accounts are appropriate or marking a variance if they are not.
