Student Employees - Charging Wages to Grant Accounts


Regular Stipend and Graduate Stipend positions can be charged to a grant by having that charge approved by Research Accounting on the Student Forecast Pay Form or the Letter of Offer.

Hourly student jobs are never set-up on BANNER to default to a grant account. This is because Research Accounting cannot currently approve the expenditure in an electronic way prior to payment. Therefore in order to pay a student from a grant, please follow the procedure detailed below.

  1. The student enters and submits their hours worked on the electronic time sheet.
  2. The approver approves the time sheet electronically so the employee will be paid on time.
  3. The approver prints a copy of the approved time sheet from Banweb and indicates which grant(s) the hours should be charged to then sends the time sheet copy to Research Accounting for approval.
  4. Research Accounting will send the grant approved time sheet copy to Human Resources and the wages will be moved off of the department account and on to the grant account.

This method ensures that we meet our dual obligation to pay the employee on time and charge their wages to the correct account.
