The following Vacation Overage message has been posted on the State Employee Services website www.kansas.gov/employee beneath the “Important Notices” section.
The Department of Administration, Office of Human Resources, is providing you this notice in the event you wish to refer your employees to the website for information on this topic.
“The last day to use vacation leave that is over the maximum is Saturday, June 9, 2012*. Read More…..
*Vacation Overage Information
Classified employees, and unclassified employees who follow Executive Order 04-13 (http://da.ks.gov/ps/subject/arc/memos/execdirective/eo04-13.pdf), and whose vacation balance is, or soon will be, over the maximum: You must use your excess vacation leave by Saturday, June 9, 2012 (or a preceding work day, such as Friday, if you do not work Saturdays).
If you are unable to take the excess vacation leave, your Human Resource or Payroll office will ensure up to 40 hours of vacation leave that is over the maximum allowed is converted to sick leave at the end of the fiscal year.
The hours you accrue during the 05/27/12 - 06/09/12 pay period are not affected.
The table below outlines the accumulation limits based on your length of service if you are a classified employee, or an unclassified employee who follows Executive Order 04-13. If you are unsure if you fall into this category, contact your Human Resources office for assistance as your maximum accumulation may differ.

144 |
5 Years and Less Than 10 |
176 |
10 Years and Less Than 15 |

Leave balances are viewable in the View Leave Balances section of State of Kansas Employee Self Service. However, please note that Vacation Leave Overages, if applicable, are not displayed separately from the Vacation Ending Balance.
If you have questions, please contact your Human Resource or Payroll office.

Last Night's (03/14/2012) SHARP off-cycle
There were problems encountered during last night’s SHARP off-cycle and the batch cycle has not yet completed. Therefore, no reports are available in CoreFTP for the March 14th off-cycle this morning. However, all adjustments and supplementals processed last night can be viewed and checked on-line in SHARP at this time. (The path is Main Menu > Payroll for North America > Produce Payroll > Review Paycheck, then enter the Pay Period End Date and EmplID).
The cycle has been resumed and should be complete before noon today. Another message will be sent out when the batch cycle completes and reports are available. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Subject: [sharpinfolist] 2011 Total Compensation Statements Now Available Online
The 2011 Total Compensation Statements are now available online. Employees can view their statements by signing into Employee Self Service on the State Employee Services page at http://www.kansas.gov/employee/.
Statements are available for all benefits eligible employees excluding employees at Regents Institutions. The Regents Institutions will provide the information directly to their employees. However, if one of your agency employees was also employed by a Regents Institution during 2011, the online statement will include those earnings.
The 2011 Total Compensation Statement shows wages paid in 2011 (paycheck issue dates January 7, 2011 – December 23, 2011). The statement does not replace W-2 forms or other income tax related information and is not intended for use in tax preparation.
Agencies may also use SHARP reporting capabilities to print a Total Compensation Statement for individual employees. The report displays both the employee’s direct and indirect compensation. The report is located at Workforce Administration>Workforce Reports>Total Compensation Statement. If you print a report for an employee please give the employee a copy of the “Total Compensation Statement Information Form.” It lists examples of the types of pay and employer contributions that may be included in their statement and is posted at http://da.state.ks.us/sharp/documents/.

Thank you for your patience while this issue was being resolved. The updates are complete. If you are currently logged into SHARP, please sign out, close all your browsers, then log back in. You may notice some pages may take a while to load; this is due to the need to rebuild cache on the server; response time will improve as more users access the pages.
Thank you again for your patience.
