To approve or reject an employee's request as an approver:
You must be assigned to an approval group that is part of the approval hierarchy defined for that request type.
You have an active employee record in Alio and an active user record in the LINQ EP.
If applicable to your organization's business practices, you are assigned to an approval group associated with an employee's location, job and/or approval department.
You can approve and reject only a request that is approved at the previous approval level.
The following information is updated in Alio when an employee’s request receives final approval from the administrator:
A demographic request updates the employee’s master record.
Important: The Demographic Request page displays the employee information that is current in Alio. Finalizing a demographic request updates the employee’s information in Alio and on the Demographic Request page. If an employee submits a demographic request before a previous demographic request is finalized, the second request will contain out-of-date information. In this case, LINQ recommends that you finalize the oldest request and reject all other requests with a note to the employee asking the employee to resubmit the changes using one demographic request. This ensures that the employee information in Alio remains current. |
A benefit or deduction request updates the employee’s deductions/benefits record.
A direct deposit request updates:
The Bank Master if the employee submitted a new bank request.
The employee’s direct deposit record if the employee requested a new direct deposit amount or allocation or added or changed their direct deposit account.
A tax request updates the employee’s tax record
A leave request is added to the Alio Human Resources Payroll System as an unposted leave transaction. The payroll administrator must post the leave and process the leave dock and pay transaction through the normal payroll processing cycle.
Refer to the Guide to Payroll Processing for Alio HRS for further information about processing leave transactions in payroll. You can download a copy of this guide from the LINQ infolink Web site. |
A time entry request updates
the LINQ EP Time Entry interface tables in Alio: ESP.REQ_TIME_REQUESTS,
ESP.REQ_TIME_JOBS,
ESP.REQ_TIME_DAYS,
and ESP.REQ_TIME_OVERTIME.
The administrator must run Alio program HEPTE01S.FMX – Portal Time
Entry Import Process to import the time entry records from the LINQ
EP Time Entry Alio interface tables into Alio. This import process
creates the additional pay records for straight time, daily and weekly
overtime, comp time leave accruals (if applicable), and reimbursements.
Your organization has the option to create the reimbursement records
in payroll or accounts payable.
After the import process is complete, you can view these records using
program HEPAY06A.FMX – Payroll Input.
You can use program HEPTE01S.FMX – Portal Time Entry Import to generate a report that shows the time entry data. This report is the only method within Alio to view the time entry data until the Portal Time Entry Import is processed. |
