What is a Work Order?

  • A Work Order is a component of the new
budget
  • financial reporting structure at Selkirk College
. Your Work Order relates to your employment
  • .  A work order is "owned" by a manager or budget officer who's responsible for the charges that will be applied to the work order.  Your work order is assigned to your employment and is used to charge your wage costs, as well as to tell the system where to send the timesheet.
  • Each work order has both a 4 digit "simple code", and a 8 digit code. You can enter either code, but most people find the 4 digit code easier to remember. 
Mandatory training is required for each supervisor before their group will have access to the electronic timesheets. These sessions will be scheduled in either June or July, depending on your release group. 
  • Alternatively, you can use the type-ahead function to enter the name of your work order.

How do I find out what my Work Order is/ Work Orders are?
