Salary Accounting Form

In situations where the WebSAF system is not available for salary accounting transactions, the SAF paper form can be used for Account Distribution and Additional Compensation for Officers. For Account Distribution, use the form to allocate, by percentage, base salary and/or Additional Compensation to the appropriate account/sub-code for new hires, reappointments, or existing employees. You can only distribute to accounts that are open AND the start date and end dates of the charge must be within the start and end dates of the Grant and/or Contract. For any exceptions to the above rule, you must contact the Restricted Funds Division, Office of the Controller to obtain the appropriate approval documentation to attach to the SAF.

NOTE: Nearly ALL additional compensation for Officers should be processed using WebSAF, except for certain situations when a paper SAF needs to be submitted. The form must be received by the HRPC before the monthly deadline per the Columbia Payroll Calendar that is posted on the TIG.

Please note: When hiring a new employee, you should NOT submit a paper SAF for accounting purposes. Submit the new hire paperwork by the Mail Closing Date, then five days after the Mail Closing Date to go into WebSAF and process the SAF online.
