Labor Accounting (LA) is used to allocate salary costs to the General Ledger Chart of Accounts. In LA, you will find salary information about faculty, staff, and biweekly employees, including paid hourly wages for casual employees and students. The tool also contains stipend and tuition information for graduate students, faculty summer salary commitments and distributions, and sponsored research project detail for effort reporting and certification compliance.
Note that graduate student and undergraduate hourly wages are not managed in LA. Student wages are applied to the appropriate chartstring and entered in Time and Absence Management.
