Purpose

The purpose of this task is to submit a pay rate change request to OSC audit for approval.

Helpful Hints

  • All pay rate change requests that require Division of Budget or Civil Service approval should not be submitted until such approval is posted in the relevant fields in NYSTEP and the Position Data page.
  • Pay Changes may be automatically approved based on meeting the editing and approval criteria. Pay Changes will only be automatically approved if the Effective Date of the change is after the latest Effective Date on the Job Data record and before the Effective Date of any open request.
