As you know, OFM is continually trying to improve the tools and resources available for processors. OFM is excited to announce a new procedure that walks you through importing the Agency HRMS Payroll, AFRS, and/or ACFR calendars directly into your Outlook calendar. These instructions have been sent via GovDelivery communications in the past but are now added as a permanent item located on the HRMS Support Hub.
The import calendars are graciously provided to OFM by an independent agency annually. The import calendars are then shared with agencies from Statewide Accounting through the OFM dl SWA Payroll Contacts EXO distribution list. While many of our users take advantage of these uploads as soon as they are released, we recognized that we do not have a place for agencies to easily access the upload files for processors that are newly hired or have transferred into a processor position part way through the year. OFM will continue to replace the annual calendar upload files as they are provided to us each year.
There is a total of 8 different CSV calendars available for import depending on your role within your agency. Each calendar has a short description to aid in selecting the correct calendar for your needs. If you have questions or require assistance with importing the CSV file into your Outlook calendar, please work directly with your internal agency IT department.
