Using PTO to bring staff up to FTE

When staff go home early, you are not required to make them use PTO to bring them up to their FTE unless they request it.  Let Sonja know if you have any questions about this.

EPSI Reports

Kellie has created these reports in EPSI.  I saved them and then shared them with you in EPSI.  This should be under your reports section of EPSI.  These are the titles of the reports.  I will go over them with you.

New Monthly Telephone Bill called VeraSMART

Starting in Februargy, you will start to receive a monthly email from VeraSMART with your unit’s telephone bill. REMINDER telephone bills are one month behind. The email will say something like “A new VeraSMART report has been generated for you. Use the link below to view it.  It will only send you your actual unit bill.  http://VERASMART1/CAS/enu/Reports/ShowReport.asp?id=08918D5DE31748AF8888C09804A11976

I have a screen shot of the bill and will make copies of it.
