Enhancements to the Payroll Accounting Adjustment Tool (PAAT)

You are receiving this message because you have access to the Payroll Accounting Adjustment Tool (PAAT) in ConnectCarolina. We are sending this message to let you know about enhancements to PAAT. Beginning on Thursday, January 31 after 7:00p.m., the following changes will be in place for PAAT:

There is a new Pending GL status on the Pay Periods selection page. When you see this status, you won’t be able to select the paycheck for an adjustment. As soon as the original distribution of the paycheck has been sent to the General Ledger, the status will change to blank, allowing you to select the paycheck for an adjustment.
Currently, if an employee is on disability, you can’t see the employee at all in PAAT. Going forward, you’ll be able to see the employee and pay periods in which the employee wasn’t on disability. Pay periods in which the employee was on disability still won’t show in PAAT. If you believe an adjustment needs to be made to a pay period you can’t see, you’ll need to submit a help request.
ConnectCarolina PAAT Administrators will now be able to recycle fully-approved PAAT transactions if an error is found and the action can be caught in time before the PAAT distribution. This means that a PAAT won’t go through and will be sent back to you so you can adjust it and send it back through the approval process. If you need to have a fully-approved PAAT transaction recycled, submit a help request.
Recycled PAATs will now show the name of the person who recycled it, instead of just the person’s onyen. You can find the person’s name on the Notes tab in PAAT.

If you have any questions about these changes, you can submit a help request at help.unc.edu.

Sincerely,

The ConnectCarolina Team
