In July
2009, the Seattle University Payroll Office in partnership with OIT launched a
new web time entry system for use by supervisors of student employees. The web
time entry system is a paperless time tracking system which will reduce
calculation errors, lost time sheets, and help streamline the processing of
payroll. Web time entry for student employees is accessible 24/7 via SUOnline (https://suonline.seattleu.edu).
If
you supervise students, you should have received an email from Rita Lin,
Payroll and Endowment Manager, with information about training sessions and
instructions on how to use the system. 125 student supervisors have
participated in the training, and they, in turn have trained their students to
enter the time on SUOnline. With the new online system, the only way student
employees will be paid is by getting an online approval from their supervisors.
If
you have questions regarding the use of the system or need to schedule yourself
for an upcoming training session, please contact
Joyce Cubelo in the Payroll Office (cubeloj@seattleu.edu or 206-296-5880). Three
additional training sessions are scheduled for October 5, 12 or 19
with sessions running from 8:30 to 10:00am or 10:00 to 11:30am.
Supervisors of student employees can access
SUOnline using their Seattle University email login credentials. Time Entry and
Approval is located in the “Employees” section of the SUOnline Menu.
The
Payroll department, Human Resources and OIT are discussing rolling out the
electronic time entry system for staff use in the future. Stay tuned for more details.
