Step 5: Job End Date and Approval Queue

The next section is for specifying when the job will end, followed by a section for indicating who will approve and finalize your EPAF.

‘Terminate a job’ section

You should not have to make any changes in the “Terminate a Job” Section.

The “Job End Date” should reflect the last day of the current bi-weekly payroll period (automatically). For the fields that say “Not Enterable”, remember that you can leave them as they are – they are hardcoded into the system and should not be altered.

‘Routing queue’ section

The Routing Queue section is for specifying who will approve your EPAF. If you have already set up your default routing queue beforehand, you can disregard this section.

Use the ‘Magnifying Glass’ search icon to find the login name associated with the person you’re looking for.

  • Type in the Banner login name of your HRIS Representative on the first line
  • Type in the Banner login name of your Managing Supervisor on the second line
  • Type in the Banner login name of the Manager of HR systems development (currently Julie Kinney) on the third line

Click SAVE when you’re done.

Comments

In the Comment block, we highly recommend that you type in the details of the substitution: the dates, class and instructor being substituted for. This way you will have this information for your records in case you need to refer to it later.

Please note that comments will become part of the employee’s permanent Banner EPAF record and cannot be changed.

Save and submit

Click the Save button at the bottom of the screen when you’re done.

Next, press the Submit button near the top of the screen.

If submitted successfully, your EPAF now moves to the Approver’s queue for approval.

Errors and warning messages

If you received Errors or Warning messages, don’t be alarmed. In many cases these can be disregarded (Warnings can always be ignored), but some Errors must be addressed before your EPAF is submitted successfully. If you didn’t get the “successfully submitted” message shown in the illustration above, there is probably an Error you must address first.
