HR Shared Services & Payroll Cut-Off Dates in SuccessFactors

Please find below the monthly HR Shared Services and Payroll cut-off dates by type of process.

Please be aware that certain processes require approval in SuccessFactors after submission to us. This means that you will need to submit such requests in advance of the cut-off date, allowing enough time to gain the approval(s) you need.

The table below indicates where you will need to allow time for in-system approvals. Please note that overall timescales should not be increased by this change – the time normally taken to gain approval for a request is simply moving to a different stage in the process.

We will only be able to process items in the current payroll month that have been submitted (and where required have been granted all necessary approvals) in SuccessFactors by the relevant cut-off date.

Please download forms directly from the website each time, to ensure you are using the most up-to-date form.
