Payroll Allocation Confirmation (PAC) System

Starting April 2023, the Payroll Allocation Confirmation (PAC) System, a Huron Employee Compensation Certification module customized for UVA, replaced Effort@. In the new system: 

• Faculty can review and approve faculty salaries and wages distributed to sponsored and non-sponsored activities via Faculty Statements.
• Clinical faculty can update additional fields for activities reportable for Medicare Cost Reporting.
• Principal Investigators (PIs) can review and approve salaries and wages of non-faculty personnel charged to their grants.
• The reporting cycles will continue to be semi-annual, with pre-review and certification periods, just like the Effort@ certification process.
• If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact OSP Post Award Financial Compliance at osp-postawardcompliance@virginia.edu.
