Payroll Services
The Financial Transaction Services Team helps to deliver timely and accurate compensation for Penn Engineering faculty, staff and students. Services include employee onboarding, time submissions review and approval, grant staffing management and tax documentation management. PEFS payroll resources provide guidance and HCM/Workday expertise to help Penn Engineering navigate current and future improvements to University payroll processes.
Employee Onboarding
PEFS enables new and returning employees to quickly onboard and register in the University payroll system. Your Workday inbox will have the onboarding tasks that you are required to complete in order to be paid. Below are the tip-sheets that can help guide you through these tasks. You will need to log into Workday with your PennKey to complete these required tasks as soon as possible. Even if you have previously been paid through Workday you should still log in and complete all inbox actions and double check Pay elections.
