Budget-Related FAQs

The proposed amount is an estimate of what you think the position will pay once filled. For full-time staff positions, you can check HR’s website under compensation for position grade and the allowable amount. Depending on the grade the proposed amount will be somewhere between the minimum through the midpoint.

The effective date should always be the beginning of the pay period for both hourly and monthly personnel.

New position numbers are created via position request (PRF). In some cases you can request to re-activate an inactive position instead of creating a new position number.

You can write speed type and cost center on the position request and/or ask the Budget Office for assistance.
