Does DTS handle Cost Center Split Distribution?

Cost center split distribution: Unlike permanent hires, temporary employees are hired under our general ledger.   Each online timecard will be charged 100% of the full DTS markup of 34.4%, or 17.4% for all federal grant-funded positions. DTS does not split cost distributions for DTS employees.

A DTS employee may work on more than one assignment.  However, a new job order must be created with its billing information and the markup charge will be applied.  In the event the department needs to split the cost between two or more cost centers, it would need to be manually JV’d by the department, not by DTS.

900-Hour: All hours accumulated by a DTS employee during the fiscal year (July 1 – June 30) will be applied towards the 900-hour policy limit.
