Electronic Submission of TUC Forms

March 20, 2020

Dear Principal Investigators and Research Administrators:

We hope all of you are keeping safe during this trying period.

As the campus moves to a virtual environment, The University Corporation (TUC) would like to provide alternative means for you to submit your payment requests to us. TUC office will remain open as long as the campus is open, though most of our employees have moved towards working remotely. We encourage that most, if not all, requests follow the guidelines below as we try to increase social distancing as recommended by campus and the state. 

Request Type

Procedure

 

 

Payroll

ADP eTime

We encourage employees and supervisors to use this method as soon as possible. If you are not set up on eTime, please reach out to TUC Payroll department at tuc.payroll@csun.edu. Attached are the guides in using eTime.

 

Electronic submission via email

For those who are not in eTime, TUC will be accepting electronic submission per guidelines below.

1. Employee must complete the Excel payroll timesheet and send the file as an attachment to the Principal Investigator (PI), or an authorized signer of the project, with the statement below on its email body. Employee must send this using their CSUN/work email address.

“I hereby certify to the best of my knowledge that the attached timesheet above represents my work performed during the period covered by this request. Signed (employee’s full name)”.

2. PI, or the authorized signer of the project, will then forward the Excel timesheet using their CSUN/work email with the statement “I approve the attached timesheet” on the body of the email to tuc.payroll@csun.edu before the due date.
