1. PAYROLL I-9 DOCUMENTS
The Payroll office would like to remind departments that they need to ensure student workers have I-9 documents completed before they are eligible to work. Please contact Payroll if you have any questions.
2. PAYMENTS TO STUDENTS – No Services Required
There are occasions when a student is to be paid for their participation rather than services. In these instances, hourly rates, number of hours, and work-study does not apply and payment must be processed as a stipend through Accounts Payable on a Voucher.
See item # 3 under “Quick Reference Table” at http://www.wesleyan.edu/finance/financeDept/accounts/PmtstoStud.html .

We have noticed if you attach documents at the line level of a Journal prior to having a Journal ID, the document only retains the first attachment and then the remaining need to be attached again. Until the root of the problem can be determined, please wait for a journal ID to be created before attaching documents. This can be accomplished using any of the following steps:
1. Complete the document and Save. This creates a journal ID and documents can be successfully attached at any point in the process. OR
2. Attach the documents after Budget Checking. The process of Budget Checking creates a journal ID.
Remember that documents can be attached even after the journal has been submitted into workflow.
