BVZZ and Work Assignment Dept
 All PS HRMS users have access to the org of BVZZ in
order to see all temp and casual records, since they
frequently move around to various departments to
work
 The Work Assignment Dept defaults to this
“virtual org” of BVZZ and must be change to a true
organization code

STF Service Date
For Temps & Casuals: PS sets to
“01/01/1901” when Service Date is blank
– Temps and Casuals don’t have real Service Dates
– 01/01/1901 represents a non-valid Service Date
– PeopleSoft passes 01/01/1901 to Axess Timecard
because Axess Timecard requires a value in the
field
– Change the STF Service Date when temp or casual
are hired to a benefit-eligible position.
