Finance director describes resignations, HRIS rollout and Tyler migration; payroll import planned
Summary
Finance leadership reported two resignations and said the department is onboarding new staff, implementing an HRIS and preparing for a Tyler financial system migration; anticipated payroll import could eliminate most manual entries for about 250 employees.
The finance lead (speaker 8) reported two recent resignations and said the department is onboarding an accounting specialist and a financial operations analyst to restore capacity. She described implementing a new HRIS (payroll/onboarding) and the planned Tyler financial system migration and noted a projected $350,000 cost for COLA and step increases in the upcoming budget.
Staff said they are working to create an import that would eliminate roughly 95% of manual payroll entry for approximately 250 employees (excluding Highway). The finance lead said the import, if implemented, would remove much of the current two‑week payroll manual workload and help deliver more accurate, timely processing.
"I just finished right before this meeting my last interview to hire what we're calling the financial operations analyst," the finance lead said, describing recruiting progress and urgency for additional capacity. The committee acknowledged the workload and the planned changes to streamline payroll and voucher processing.
