See more at EVPP: PAR Process - Section One: Position Information. Start datesFall startFor most appointments beginning in the fall semester, use the following: - "Offer Start Date" 08 01 YY if faculty member's appointment will begin August 1, or other date as appropriate.
- Joint hires: Percent time should be proportional to their FTE in each department.
- Example: A joint hire that is 75% in KHE and 25% in SPE:
- KHE PAR (primary): Offer start date of 8/1 at 75%
- SPE PAR (joint): Offer start date of 8/1 at 25%
Spring startFor most appointments beginning in the spring semester, use the following: - "Offer Start Date" 01 01 YY if faculty member's appointment will begin January 1, or other date as appropriate.
- Joint hires: Percent time should be proportional to their FTE in each department.
- Example: A joint hire that is 75% in KHE and 25% in SPE:
- KHE PAR (primary): Offer start date of 1/1 at 75%
- SPE PAR (joint): Offer start date of 1/1 at 25%
For start dates prior to those listed above, see guidance for the appropriate hire type: Position type- For positions to be appointed in only one unit, select "Primary".
- For joint positions, the primary owning unit should select "Primary", and the secondary/additional unit(s) should select "Joint". See COE: Hiring Joint Faculty for more information.
StipendThe "Stipend" field in DEFINE is a pre-Workday relic that no longer serves any purpose and can be ignored. Formerly, it showed the annual allocation amount for the appointment based on annual academic rate, any supplements, dates, and FTE. Workday has its own payroll calculation algorithm however, and may differ from the Stipend calculation shown in Workday. Alternate job code and rateThese fields pertain only to hires made with degree contingencies, and become available for editing only if a Contingency Type is indicated in PAR Section 3. See COE: Degrees and Contingencies for more information, including types of contingencies available. |

Date approvedDate item was approved by the Dean. For most offer items, this will be the date that the Dean's Office HR Team notified the department that the draft or provisional offer letter was approved by the Dean or Associate Dean. If an item was added to a subsequent draft after the original draft/provisional letter was approved, then use the date the subsequent draft was approved. Supporting documentation statusSelect the appropriate option to match supporting documentation. Certain options may not apply to every type of supporting documentation. Documentation for superseding PARs will usually be "On File," having been attached to the original PAR. Dates: August funding source split for fall-start facultyINLINEIMPORTANT: Note that many dates below will change for PARs effective in 2024-25, and will be updated once guidance becomes available.
- Institution-funded August salary begins 10 business days prior to September 1, and ends August 31.
- Example: For August 2023 in the calendar below, August 18th is the date 10 business days prior to September 1. Therefore, Institution-funded August salary dates for AY 2023-24 are August 18-31.
- College-funded August salary begins August 1, and ends the calendar date immediately prior to start of Institution-funded August salary.
- Example: For August 2023 in the calendar below, College-funded August salary for AY 2023-24 starts August 1 and ends August 17, because Institution-funded August salary begins August 18.
Calculations for fall-start facultyCalculating partial month salaryUse the COE-HR August Salary Calculator, or the formulas below. August 1-17 (end date changes)1) Count number of workdays (Monday-Friday) in period to be calculated. Example: August 1-17, 2022: number of workdays is 13 2) Count number of workdays (Monday-Friday) in August. Example: August 1-31, 2022: number of workdays is 23
3) Calculate monthly salary: Annual salary/9. Example: $100,000 annual/9 months = $11,111.11 4) (Number of days worked/number of workdays in month) * monthly salary = partial month salary. Example: 13/23 * 11,111.11 = $6,280.19 5) Enter total into PAR, rounded to closest dollar. Example: Enter 6,280 into PAR August 18-31 (begin date changes; always 10 business days before September 1)1) Count number of workdays (Monday-Friday) in period to be calculated. Example: August 18-31, 2022: number of workdays is 10 2) Count number of workdays (Monday-Friday) in August. Example: August 1-31, 2022: number of workdays is 23
3) Calculate monthly salary: Annual salary/9. Example: $100,000 annual/9 months = $11,111.11 4) (Number of days worked/number of workdays in month) * monthly salary = partial month salary. Example: 10/23 * 11,111.11 = $4830.92 5) Enter total into PAR, rounded to closest dollar. Example: Enter 4,831 into PAR- A = Attached (included in PAR packet or listed in offer letter). Most funding commitments should be in this status.

As of fall 2023, the "Contact Information" section no longer requires a mailing address. An email address is still required. FICE Codes"FICE" stands for Federal Interagency Committee on Education, and it is a six-digit identification code used to identify institutions of higher education in the United States. Although the Board of Education has since moved to a new coding system, UT still uses FICE codes. TIP: When looking up institutions within the PAR beginning with “University of” the search should begin “Univ of...". For an additional list of FICE (Federal Interagency Committee on Education) codes, see Higher Institutions FICE Codes. International institutionsIn instances where a degree was earned as a foreign institution, a stand-in for a FICE code can be created by Academic Personnel Services. This request can be made via ServiceNow: Faculty Affairs & APS. In the help request, include specific information about the institution in question (official name, past names, location, etc) and a link to the institution’s official website. Degrees and contingenciesA contingency on a PAR is made when, at the time of formal offer, a faculty candidate will be in the process of earning a degree that the hiring unit is requiring for the position. See more at COE: Degrees and Contingencies. If the faculty candidate is still working on the degree the value for the year earned should be “9999," and the highest degree value must be “N.” The highest degree completed should be marked as "Highest Degree Completed." For example, if the PhD is still in progress, but the Master's degree has been earned, degree information screens should read: - PhD
- Year: 9999
- Highest Degree Completed? N
- Master's
- Year: (YYYY of completion)
- HIghest Degree Completed: Y
If contingency information is entered in Section Three, then additional details will be needed in Section One, fields "Alternate Job Code" and "Alternate Rate". See more information on tab "Section One: Position information" on this Wiki page. Read more about degree contingencies at COE: Degrees and Contingencies.

b) Waiver: If the job was approved for a Posting Exemption Request, enter "Waiver" on the Job ID line. In Supporting Documentation, enter "N" for "Job posting" and the word "Waiver" on the comment line. Note that this waiver should be final-approved by APS prior to routing the PAR to the Dean's Office. c) Extrnl Hire: Refers to recruitment conducted by an external firm. (Spelling of value is correct and due to character limit.) d) Spousal: Refers to a partner hire. This is only used for the recipient of a spousal hire agreement, not the principal hire (ie. the faculty member whose acceptance of our offer is contingent upon the hiring of their partner). A spousal hire must also include a waiver form approved by the Provost. If “Spousal” is entered as a value for Job Posting Number, the EID of the principal hire must be entered below it. A look-up is provided by entering a question mark in the field. The name of the principal faculty member will display beneath the EID. e) N/A: A posting number, waiver or spousal agreement is Not Applicable (N/A) if the faculty assignment is a 0%-time, if it is an adjunct, or for a visiting title. Joint hiresFor joint hires, documentation status should be detailed on the Primary PAR. Any documentation included in the Primary PAR packet should be noted on the Joint PAR as "Attached".
