   Overview   

In the Budget Planning and Salary Setting process, salary is set using Time Bands.

Time Bands indicate periods of time for pay authorization. They can be added for any particular month or date that funding should change for an employee. It will always be on the first day of a month for monthly employees. By default, the Budget End Date will be 6/30 of the fiscal year. If a monthly employee plans to leave before 6/30, the specific end date must be entered so that the system will only budget through that date.

For example: A monthly employee will be paid from one combo code the first half of the year and a different combo code the second half of the year. A user can define two Time Bands (TB1 and TB2) with a Start Date of 7/1 for TB1 and a Start Date of 1/1 for TB2. TB1 will then be from 7/1 - 12/31, and TB2 will be from 1/1-6/30.
