Payroll Confirmation Report

Payroll Confirmation Report

Welcome to the UTSA Sponsored Project Payroll Confirmation Report website. Payroll Confirmation is a process mandated by the federal government per Uniform Guidance CFR 200.430 to verify that direct labor charges to, or cost shared on, sponsored projects are accurate, timely, and reasonable for the work performed.

Note: Payroll Confirmation application is available 24/7 from any computer with an Internet connection.

  • Payroll Confirmation is done twice a year to cover the periods from (1) September through February and (2) March through August.
  • The Payroll Confirmation period is now open for the Principal Investigator(PI) to review, complete, confirm, and submit a payroll confirmation statement.

FAQs

What is it?  

The Sponsored Project Payroll Confirmation Report system uses payroll (HCM002) data. All salaries charged on sponsored projects including hourly salaries are captured. The data is compiled into payroll reports for PIs. They can accept or deny the salaries shown in the report. The action taken by PI on the Payroll Report is important as it certifies whether salary charges on sponsored projects are accurate and reasonable for the work performed on a project.
