Once a claim has been submitted it will be displayed in the approver's Notification page and can be either approved or rejected.
Approve a pay claim
Log in to Access Education People and click on the Notifications icon. This icon will display the number of requests that are awaiting your approval.
Select the request from the menu on the left. Pay claim requests will be displayed under Payroll Adjustments.
Click Approve on each of the claims in the batch that need to be approved.
When all claims are approved, click Process.
⚠️ Important: You will need to click Process after approving the claim. Skipping this part of the process will result in the claim not being sent to payroll.
📌 Note: Because the pay claims menu does not have an audit log feature it will not be possible to report on the exact date or time a claim has been approved and by whom.
Reject a pay claim
Log in to Access Education People and click on the Notifications icon.
Select the pay claim request from the menu on the left.
Click Reject on each claim that needs to be rejected.
Enter a reason in the text box that pops up and click Reject.
Click Return.
Once the claim is rejected and returned, the employee who submitted it will be able to access it in their Self Service menu and edit it before submitting again.
