Payroll Cost RecoveriesPayroll Cost Recoveries

The attached spreadsheet contains agency recovery and/or petty cash deductions that were entered for the current payroll cycle. Agency recovery deductions are denoted by deduction codes that begin with a Y.

Agency recovery deduction dollars ultimately post to your Inter-Agency GIRO Account. Petty cash deductions are denoted by deduction codes that begin with a Z. Petty cash deduction dollars ultimately post to your Agency Petty Cash Bank account.

These deductions are typically entered by your agency payroll officers/staff members (within your department). All questions regarding these deductions should be directed to your agency payroll staff members.

The text of the email begins………….

Payroll Cost RecoveriesPayroll Cost Recoveries

If the DEPTID field contains a department that is not linked to your agency, one of the following scenarios is occurring:

1) A different agency has taken a deduction from an employee and the deduction (liability) is coded to your funding source.

2) A different agency has refunded an employee and the refund has been charged to your funding source (the amount field will contain a negative under this scenario).

If you feel you have received this information in error or if you have any specific questions regarding this process...please send them to: mark.bissoni@po.state.ct.us.
