If necessary, use the magnifying glass icon to look up available positions and select a different one for this faculty.
If the New Position # does not display for the department you are appointing the faculty in, you will need to complete a Position Action Form which is available on the HRDI Forms webpage under Position Management.
6. If you need to revise the Budget Chart Fields, place a checkmark under Override and then click on the magnifying glass icon to look up available chartfield string combination codes.
Please note that any chartfields and combo codes shown in screenshots are samples.

You may only use account code 601807 for FAE academic year appointments.
- To change the budget chart fields, place a checkmark under Override. Then click on the magnifying glass icon to look up available chartfield string combination codes.
- Use the plus icon at the end of the row to add a new row. This allows you to split the cost of the faculty's appointment between different chartfield strings (e.g., if multiple funding sources are being used to fund the faculty's appointment).
Field | Description |
---|---|
Budget Chart Fields | This is the chartfield string (or strings) that will be charged the assignment compensation amount for this appointment. |
6.1. When using the magnifying glass icon to look up a combination code, use the filters at the top to narrow down your results. Then select the combination code that you want to use for this appointment.
If you cannot find the chartfield string/combination code that you want to use, contact your Division Budget Manager.

Notice that you can select combination codes that include program codes and/or class codes.
Use the filters at the top of the screen to narrow down your search results. For example, you may want to enter 601807 as the account code as that is the only one that can be used for FAE academic year appointments.
Then select a combination code that represents the chartfield string that you want to use for this appointment.
7. Review the appointment. Click Save when you are ready to save your changes.
Some colleges have the processor check the Ready to Print box at the top of the contract screen prior to notifying the college approver that the appointment is ready to approve.
Keep in mind that if you check the Ready to Print box and changes are made to the contract, you may end up with multiple contract PDFs for the faculty for this same contract. You will need to be careful to retrieve the updated contract PDF and not the outdated one.
You will see a message at the top right of the screen when the appointment has been saved.
8. Once you have finished entering all of the Faculty Additional Employment academic year appointments, contact your College or Program Head Approver to let them know you have Faculty Additional Employment academic year appointments to be reviewed and approved.
Each college may handle this part of the process differently. Contact your College or Program Head Approver to inquire how they want you to notify them of appointments that need their approval.
Next Step
The authorized college/unit approver must approve the Faculty Additional Employment appointment.
