Year-end PTO cash outs

With the end of the year coming up I just wanted to remind you of some of the best practices for filling out the cash-in request timecards. If these guidelines are followed, then it would help us out a lot in getting all of these payments processed as quickly and accurately as possible:

Submit as a “Cash In” Claim Type

1) Requests should be for only type of PTO (vacation, personal, or sick) cash-in per timecard submitted

2) Timecard comments should state to pay remaining balance of the PTO type for 2023 instead of the specific amount (e.g. “Pay remaining 2023 vacation balance” or “Pay all unused 2023 personal days”)

3) There is no need for anyone to submit a separate timecard for each individual day that is being cashed in (e.g. a 32-hour vacation cash-in should be submitted on one request instead of four separate requests)

4) Since we are now using electronic timecards there should not be a need for anyone to submit duplicate timecards. They can email me or the verification department with the request ID# and we can check the status of the request. 

Thanks,
