Stay
current in EzLabor … especially
this
week! The college will transmit the final 2007
payroll (for the entire campus) at noon Thursday, Dec. 27. Please
ensure all EzLabor approvals are complete before leaving for
the long Christmas holiday. Absolute deadline for approvals: 10 a.m.
on Dec. 27. After 10 a.m., any times recorded without supervisor
approval will be deleted.
To pay bills and receive reimbursement in 2007, submit check
requests and reimbursement forms before noon next Thursday, Dec. 27.
Next week’s check run is the last of calendar year 2007. So, either
we submit the forms this week, or we have only a half-day to get the
job done. Because the College is closed Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday!
