Understanding Automatic Deposit Information Approval

Employees can use self-service to enter and update some of their personal information, such as name and address, emergency contact, and so on. Some types of information that employees enter, such as automatic deposit and competency, must be reviewed and approved by someone else before the database is updated.

If you are a representative of your organization's payroll department, you might be responsible for approving the automatic deposit information that employees add or change. In some cases, the routing number for an employee's bank might not exist in the user-defined code list for routing numbers (06/BC). You can use self service to approve automatic deposit information and the addition of new routing numbers.

If you are a representative of the payroll department, you might be responsible for approving the automatic deposit information that employees enter through self service. If Enterprise Workflow Management is enabled, you receive a message in the Employee Work Center when automatic deposit information is awaiting your approval. You must verify that the employee correctly completed all of the necessary information, and then approve or disapprove the request. If necessary, you can enter a response to the employee. Workflow includes your response in the email message that notifies the employee of the status of the request.
