The Salary and Wage Redistribution and Justification (SWRJ) application is used to submit a cost transfer request to Payroll Services or Research Financial Services (RFS) when a department is unable to make salary adjustments using the Employee Charging Instructions (ECI) in PeopleSoft.
The SWRJ cost transfer application can be used to request the transfer of work effort/costs from one or multiple Chart Strings (GL or Project).
The SWRJ form is designed to adjust the wages for one employee, and record number per form.
For more information, please see the full instructions.
