________________________________
This is a follow up to the message that was sent on Friday February 2nd, and is intended to provide more detailed information about the system update, as well as provide information related to recent changes made to revenue allocations.
The compensation change resulted from TBH positions/salaries that were deleted by users in the compensation forms in UM Plan without clicking save. As a result, the positions were deleted in the compensation tables but that change wasn’t pushed over into the consolidated tables. A setting in the “overnight batch” procedures was updated which caused the impact of the deletions to be properly reflected in the compensation tables. All units that were affected have been provided with details of changes by fund-org-account.
There were also some changes made to the way the budgets for the Law and Engineering surcharges are handled. These surcharges were changed from allocated tuition to direct tuition which is not allocated. This is in line with the way similar fees are being handled. This change results in less revenue in the undergraduate tuition pool overall. This also had an impact on the EAL revenue allocation which is driven, in part, by the results of the tuition allocation. There will be another update to the tuition budget prior to the next allocation run which should bring most faculties’ allocated revenue up from where it is today.
You can appreciate the complexities of all of the variables that make up this system and we appreciate your patience as we work through this. We will continue to keep you updated on our progress.
In the meantime, if you have any questions or would like additional details related to the technical aspect of these changes please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank- you,
Mark

________________________________
Thank you for all of your efforts to date in developing the 2018/19 operating budget. Further adjustments will be required as we continue through the budget development process but some changes have been made that we would like you to be aware of:
1. A system defect was resolved that resulted in properly consolidating salaries that were entered in the compensation screens.
2. Several Central Support Units have reduced their original budget requests
3. Allocations have been re-run
As a result, all Academic units will see that their total budget, when including allocations, has changed.
