FACET, FSU’s new Effort Reporting System is live and open for Fall 08 certifications!

We are excited to announce that the FACET effort reporting application within the OMNI HR system is now open for Fall 2008 exempt effort certification.

Some of the features of the new system include:

• Electronic Workflow Certifications eliminating the need for submission of paper certifications
• Hyperlinks to supporting data and elimination of unnecessary data elements
• Improve/create capabilities for tracking committed effort and cost sharing for research
• Automatic certification of grad assistant and adjunct faculty effort reports that do not include any sponsored funding
• A centralized/automated system for tracking of Faculty Assignment of Responsibilities (future phase) that will be integrated with the effort certification application

Drop-in Help Sessions are currently being conducted to assist departments in getting started with FACET. In addition, there are great training materials related to FACET available online at http://omni.training.fsu.edu/OMNI-FACET.
