Changes Coming to Benefit Cost Transfers and Direct Retros |
|
|
Changes are coming to both the Benefit Cost Transfer Tool and the Direct Retro tool. Prepare for the changes below.
|
Benefit Cost Transfer (BCT) Tool
|
The newly redesigned Benefit Cost Transfer (BCT) tool is launching on Thursday, October 2, 2025. Key features of the new BCT tool include:
|
-
A similar interface to the Salary Cost Transfer (SCT) tool for consistency.
- Improved functionality to allow adjustments on a per-transaction basis.
- Ability to filter transactions by chartfield elements, expense types, and deduction codes.
- Optimized processing for faster transaction execution.
|
Important Considerations:
|
-
Paychecks prior to October 31, 2021, are not eligible for the new BCT tool. You will need to follow local processes to correct these transactions. For specific guidance, please submit a ticket inquiry to Payroll Financial Management (About: Financial Accounting > Related to: Payroll Financial Management > Payroll Salary & Benefit Costs Transfers (UCPath)).
- BCTs are only to be used for special circumstances. Submit a ticket inquiry to Payroll Financial Management for more information.
|
- Please approve or deny all pending BCT transactions by Tuesday, September 23, 2025.
|
Retirement of the Direct Retro Tool
|
The Direct Retro tool will be retired on Wednesday, October 1, 2025. Beginning Thursday, October 2, 2025, users will only be able to view previously processed Direct Retros in UCPath. The Direct Retro tool will no longer be available to use.
The final Direct Retro deadline is on Tuesday, September 16, 2025 (BW/MO Non-High-Risk for posting in September).
|
