Recently, earnings paid via any method other than period activity pay, that are excluded from salary over the cap and funded by a grant, were inappropriately treated as salary over the cap.
This issue required a payroll accounting adjustment to move the expense from the department to the grant.
Workday has delivered a fix which will correctly exclude the earnings from salary over the cap in most scenarios for actuals and encumbrances. More information is forthcoming and will be discussed during the portion of the November Finance Office Hours session, regarding how to identify affected payments from prior pay periods.
