Hi All,
We just found out that our Accounting office changed the default function code for all our Federal Work-study payroll activity to function 78 recently. Before this change, all FWS transactions would default to the department's payroll function code (never a 78) for both the federal and dept match.
Does your campus use function 78 financial aid for federal work-study student earnings transactions? We had never classified FWS earnings as financial aid in our payroll accounting or tracking before. We are currently assessing about possible issues or impacts of this change.
If you have any information about this, do let us know.
Appreciate your insight as always.
Thanks.
Arvin
