Processing Costs Associated with Term Life Insurance Deductions in the Central Payroll and NCAS Systems

Beginning early in 2005, Central Payroll will process salary costs associated with specific term life insurance deductions under a secondary subhead for all positions that are split-funded on the Central Payroll system.  The salary costs for the term life insurance will be recorded in the Central Payroll system under each position's primary subhead (NCAS accounting distribution) but with a '998' overlaying positions 7 through 9 of the account, also known in NCAS as the sub-account field.  When the payroll interface is processed, the following changes will be programmatically generated:

If the 10th and 11th positions of the salary account are populated with data, then the payroll interface will replace the '998' sub-account field with zeros.  For an example of this scenario, see below:

Primary Salary
Distribution  
Term Life Insurance Salary in Central Payroll   Distribution Posted
in NCAS
XX01-53121200004-xxxxxxxxxxxx     XX01-53121299804-xxxxxxxxxxxx XX01-53121200004-xxxxxxxxxxxx

If the 10th and 11th positions of the salary account are blank, then the payroll interface will replace the '998' sub-account field with blanks.  For an example of this scenario, see below:

Primary Salary Distribution Term Life Insurance Salary in Central Payroll Distribution Posted in NCAS
XX01-531212-xxxxxxxxxxxx XX01-531212998-xxxxxxxxxxxx XX01-531212-xxxxxxxxxxxx

It is important to note that term life insurance salary costs will not be prorated between multiple funding sources when the affected positions are split-funded.  Manual adjustments through Budgetary Control journal vouchers will be required for these costs to be properly allocated to multiple sources, if required. 

 

Also, positions whose primary salary distribution already contains a valid sub-account, such as account 531251001 (SPA Teaching Salaries & Wages -- Mentor Pay), must be manually reclassified from the six-digit base account to the full sub-account.
