Key Change Impacts
1. ELF (Electronic Forms) will be retired for payroll transfers.
2. Payroll transfers will be performed in KFS using the Salary Expense Transfer (ST) document.
3. Manual calculation and entry of fringe benefits will no longer be required of the Unit performing the payroll transfer (the ST document will automatically calculate fringe
based on the total transfer amount for an employee for a select pay period)
4. New routing and approval process for the General Accounting (GA) and the Office of Contract and Grant Accounting (OCGA)

Account Responsibility
Contact us at [email protected]
KFS Accounts are assigned individual roles that define account responsibility. These roles guide routing in workflow.
Role DescriptionFiscal Officer
• Responsible for the fiscal management of the account and ensures financial transactions are compliant with university policies and procedures.
• Will approve most account transactions for the selection of e-docs that route to the fiscal officer for approval. Account approvals can be delegated to staff. Delegation can set up by type of transaction and dollar amount.
Account Supervisor
• Oversees the management of the account at a higher-level than the Fiscal Officer, but rarely receives any direct requests for approval.
• The Account Supervisor cannot be the same as the Fiscal Officer or the Account Manager. There is no workflow responsibility assigned to this role in KFS.
Account Manager
• Responsible for ensuring that funds are spent and managed according to the goals, objectives and mission of the organization, that the funds are spent according to a budgeted plan and that the allocation of expenditures is appropriate to the function identified for the account.
• The Account Manager and Fiscal Officer can be the same person.
