Additional Pay transactions are used to pay an employee a regular flat dollar amount above their base compensation, on a recurring basis. For example, an employee is temporarily taking on job duties outside the scope of their job description and receives a monthly $500 stipend.
If the out-of-scope work is associated with a separate hourly/annual pay rate (for example, a temporary out-of-class assignment), this would be entered as a concurrent hire.
If the employee is owed additional hours that have not been paid, it should be submitted via Payroll Request (ex: Off-Cycle) or through the I-181 time file.
Additional Pay transactions are used to pay an employee a regular flat dollar amount above their base compensation, on a recurring basis. For example, a $500 stipend paid once a month, or once a pay period.

Recurring additional pay is paid by pay period and will be processed on on-cycle payrolls only.
For monthly employees, it would pay once a month. For biweekly employees, additional pay can be defined for each payday in the month. For example, you could define additional pay to pay on the first biweekly pay cycle of the month, for the first and second biweekly pay cycle of the month, or for all three biweekly pay cycles in a month (for those months that have three biweekly paydays in a month).
Recurring additional pay is associated with the employee’s empl record, not their position.
There is an automatic process run by UCPath that ends additional pay once the empl record is inactive for 60 days. If an employee is rehired onto an empl record that previously had recurring additional pay within the 60-day window, the additional pay will persist on the new job.
You should go in via the Create Additional Pay, or the PayPath Actions pages to end the additional pay.
For example, are there permissions for seeing that payment information?
There are no specific notifications regarding payments being processed in UCPath. To check if a payment has been processed, review the specific employee's paycheck/payroll data.
If an employee is paid using an incorrect chartstring, the payment can be transferred to the appropriate chartstring using a Salary Cost Transfer request.
Recurring additional pay is associated with the employee’s empl record, not their position. As a result, if an employee with recurring additional pay is transferred from one position to another, reusing that same empl record, the additional pay will persist.
