Melissa Bissey noticed the existing Additional Fringe Form needed an overhaul to help address State of Kansas Payroll process changes, create lookup integrations to prevent errors, and improve the workflow to address other process delays. This new form has multiple benefits. First is an improved workflow which will prevent dependence on manual follow-ups with employees, provide notifications to submitters for progress/errors, and has an integrated employee step to acknowledge the additional fringe compensation. Additionally, the functionality of the form itself has been improved to include searchable fields to prevent entering incorrect funding and employees from being selected.
With the previous form, there were delays in additional fringe transactions from being processed and required more manual reviews for accuracy. These improvements not only benefit those involved filling in the form but employees will get paid faster as a result of the new workflow and fewer errors.
