September delays with off cycle pay

September 11, 2019

Dear SHARE Region,

We would like to provide you some helpful information that will help you prepare for any pay impacting issues around the middle of September.

As you know UCPath will experience system outages when the UC Davis campus goes live. During conversion the UCPath system will be down for all locations as noted below:

Second UCPath lockout (impacting employees paid on a bi-weekly basis):

  • Thursday September12th at 5pm thru Tuesday September 17th at 12AM.

During the lockout periods, off-cycle requests will not be processed and this includes instant pay cards. 

As a result, any late hires and late biweekly timesheets will have significant delays to their pay issuance.

We anticipate the delays will likely mean that any off cycle pay requests may NOT be issued until 9/25/2019 at the earliest.

**Please note that when we submit off cycle pay requests BRS does not know when pay will be issued as this is manually provided by UC Path and can change until pay is in pay confirm status***

In order to avoid issues with delayed off cycle pay requests around the middle of September, we encourage you to consider the following:

  • Submit your hiring requests for non exempt employees as soon as possible

  • Provide options with respect to emergency loans to student employees at the time of a late appointment so they can prepare a contingency plan 

  • Encourage all existing employees and new hires that are live in UC Path to enroll in direct deposit via self service as soon as possible. This helps avoid the additional 2-3 days it takes to have a check mailed to an employee’s address.

Thank you, 
Ana Sanchez
