The automated message that alerts you that you’ve received a reimbursement has been revamped to address phishing and security concerns. When you receive a reimbursement, you will be able to easily identify that the message is from a friendly and recognizable source. The new messages for reimbursements started Friday, November 3. What to expect The new message features changes to help you recognize the message as official University business: The message is now from “UNC-Chapel Hill Disbursement Services” instead of “Procurement Internal,” a generic account that was formerly used to send such notifications. The subject line of the message is now “Payment Notification” instead of “Payment Advice Notification.” The message includes clearer language regarding the payment and attached file; The closing signature of the message includes more extensive information, including a contact email address for Disbursement Services. Community Input The improvements to the message are a direct result of feedback from the University community. Continued partnership with and support from the community are critical as work continues to move automated messages more in line with security best practices.

In an effort to streamline the sources of financial data for sponsored projects, plans are in place to decommission the PI Dashboard in Infoporte effective January 10, 2023. The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) and Information Technology Systems (ITS) developed a more robust and detailed reporting tool for sponsored projects with the release of RAM Reports. RAM Reports provides both campus and central offices with the same view of financial data to improve transparency and streamline processes with sponsored projects’ financial monitoring and reporting. Any user with an active Onyen who annually accepts the Terms of use for University Administrative Systems Policy can access RAM Reports. Benefits of Using Enhanced RAM Reports The RAM Reports offer campus and central offices the same view of financial data currently on the PI Dashboard with improved functionality such as easy hyperlink access to related ConnectCarolina and RAMSeS data. Having one report to look at will improve transparency and streamline the processes involved in financial monitoring and reporting for contracts and grants. A few highlights of the RAM Reports: Intuitive and easy navigation to views of overall award information and transactions versus projects. The new Personnel Details view Offers several personnel reporting options, including projected salaries and access to expenditures for all individuals down to the specific transaction.

The enhancements include: New Accounts Receivable (AR) Views with access to the AR reports are available from the Awards Summary page. A new Award “AR” tab includes links to your project invoices. The RAMSeS Billing tab has links that take you directly to attachments. There are direct links to the Voucher Summary Page in ConnectCarolina. The header view Award and Project Summary pages have formatting changes, including moving the award/project title to a separate line. You can now see Account category subtotals in the Financial Information layout. For more information, visit the Research Administration RAM Reports web page and click the Updates and the Reference Guide tabs.
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. … Read more
