For bank workers weekly pay, shifts must be finalised by 9am every Monday - this is early, but it’s the only way to ensure colleagues are paid on time. Right click on the purple bar, select “Finalise”, amend the dates to the previous week and only tick “Include bank duties” to finalise them all. Make sure they are entered correctly.
Ensure bank holidays have been entered for all non-working colleagues to prevent unnecessary overpayments. This is done the same way as you add annual leave - select “Bank holiday” from the reason drop down.
The deadline for finalising April’s monthly duties is Tuesday, 3 May. Please ensure all substantive duties between 1 and 30 April are finalised by this date so overtime and enhancements can reach payroll in time. Follow the steps above, this time the dates should cover the whole of April and only click “Include substantive duties”.
If colleagues are off due to sickness absence for an unknown period of time, extend their sickness period past the end of the month, this will stop the sickness end dates transferring to ESR until the sickness is complete. Remember to update the correct end date once they return.
Your unfilled duties displayed in the red area at the top of the roster derive from your unit’s demand template as set out by your budget. You can create additional duties or move a duty by right clicking on an unfilled duty and selecting the relevant option. You must select an appropriate reason for this change and be sure you are staying within budget.
