It was found that the query M_PY_DNP_BALANCE_DISTRICT was reporting incorrect balance amounts. The query was corrected today, August 17, 2018, and will now report the correct amounts. If you ran this query previously, it is recommended that you run it again.

Please keep in mind that this does not impact DNP balances that were automatically placed on the payline, nor does it impact the DNP balances maintained by the system. Those are correct.

If you have any further questions, please submit a HEAT Self-Service ticket at http://hss.sdcoe.net.

Yesterday, August 16, 2018, we let you know that some users reported that they cannot log into PeopleSoft ESS or Portal. This was due to the “redirects” from the short URL not redirecting to the long URL.

DONE – ESS is fixed. You can use https://ess.erp.sdcoe.net to access PeopleSoft Employee Self-Service as usual.

STILL BEING RESOLVED – The redirect to the Portal for certain versions of Internet Explorer is still being worked. In the meantime, you can access Portal from the long URL (https://sdppg91.erp.sdcoe.net/psp/sdpp911/EMPLOYEE/EMPL/h/?tab=PAPP_GUEST) using any browser. Or, using the short URL (https://peoplesoft.erp.sdcoe.net), use Chrome or Firefox.

Today, August 16, 2018, some users have reported that they cannot log into PeopleSoft ESS or Portal.

PROBLEM: The “short URLs” for ESS (https://ess.erp.sdcoe.net from multiple browsers) and Portal (https://peoplesoft.erp.sdcoe.net from Internet Explorer) takes you to a screen that says “Error No Access to: /” or does not redirect to the login screen. The redirects appear to have stopped working.

FIX: Use the “long URLs” for ESS (https://ess.erp.sdcoe.net/psp/sdppss/PSS/EMPL/h/?tab=PAPP_GUEST) and Portal (https://sdppg91.erp.sdcoe.net/psp/sdpp911/EMPLOYEE/EMPL/h/?tab=PAPP_GUEST)..

This issue has been reported to the technical team. In the meantime we have changed the URLs on the CRC Links page to point to the “long URLs.”

To ensure the integrity of payroll processing and distribution, we suspend overnight processes after 5:00 pm during the following nights:

• Off Cycle payroll
• On Cycle payroll - Pre-Calc through Confirm

It is critical that you refrain from running or scheduling any jobs during these timeframes as well as during the user lockout period, which begins on the Final Calc night and ends with the CRC “Unlock announcement.”

Please join us on Thursday, August 16, 2018 at 10:00 am for a Third Thursday Demo about combo codes. This demo is part refresher, part new information and will contain everything you need to know about combo codes since you implemented PeopleSoft HCM!

NEW! We will present the revised "Combo Code Schedule" that will be implemented in the near future. This is the new timetable that shows exactly when combo codes will be created 4x per day. We will explain the things you need to do, plus the things the system does (scheduled jobs, Integration Broker, etc.) in order for a combo code to be created.

REFRESHER: We will also provide refresher information on the following:

• What a combo code is 
• Sample combo codes 
• Suspense combo codes 
• Screens where combo codes are used 
• How combo codes are created 
• How to use the Combination Code Table (read only access, and "Inactivate" access) 
• Combo code queries 
• FAQs, including the reasons why your combo code isn't generated when you expect it to be 

Date/Time: Thursday, August 16, 2018 from 10:00-11:00 am

From EBS: Paysheets for the August 2018 On Cycle have now been created.

Based on a poll taken by the Post Implementation Team, the August on-cycle paysheets will be available to districts on Wednesday, August 8, 2018 (not Monday, August 6 as is stated on the payroll calendar). This is being done to allow districts extra time to complete any necessary data changes due to summer month hires and adjustments.
