Electronic Payroll Certification System
The
Electronic Payroll Certification System (EPCS) has been developed
to provide the Principal Investigator (PI) with electronic
access to their FAMIS Monthly Payroll Approval and Financial
Reports. The reports for each account have been electronically
generated into a .pdf (Adobe) format, making them readily
available throughout the fiscal year.
Certification
of the reports is done electronically. A time and date stamp
is applied to each report when the certification button is
clicked. Notes can and will be attached to each report so
please make all notes prior to clicking the certification
button.
The
Texas A&M Research Foundation (TAMRF) worked with the
A&M system to provide a single sign-on for this application.
You may login using the Single Sign-On information used with
HRConnect and LeaveTraq applications or you may use your NetID
account information.

The
Delegates tab gives the PI the ability to view current delegates
or Add/Remove delegates to the accounts.
Current
delegates assigned to accounts may be viewed through the
link
(current delegates). Once the link is selected, the page
will display all accounts that currently have delegates
assigned to them.
To
add or remove a delegate, type the first or last name in
the appropriate field and search for the person.
Once
the name is displayed, click "Add/Remove Delegate"
to request the account to associate them to.
If
the person is a new employee or not listed in the system,
you can request to add them by clicking on the Add User
button.
Please
Note:
If authorization is given for Payroll delegation, the delegated
person must have supervisory authority for the work performed.
Additionally, you as the PI are required to certify the
following:
I
agree, the person listed above is authorized to act on
my behalf for payroll approval matters related to the
referenced account for the duration of the account or
until removed as a delegate by me, through the payroll
certification system.
