SEEMLESS and Effort Reporting Process

Purdue University Effort Reporting Process 

The online SEEMLESS (Summer Employment and Effort Management Leading Efficiency through a Simple Solution) application replaces paper PARs, beginning with the summer PAR period, May 1 through August 31, 2018.

• Business offices and faculty will access SEEMLESS to view PARs.
• Similar to today, faculty must verify their effort. The business office will view and approve.
• Once central office review and it is ‘certified.’ The PAR is locked.

How it works for Summer PAR period:

1. Information from Summer Pay prepopulates the PAR
2. Faculty must verify PARs
   • A PAR can be assigned to one or more faculty for review, but only one faculty can sign the PAR
3. Business office and/or faculty can edit PARs:
   • New cost distribution items can be added/deleted
   • Comments can be added/edited
   • Edits automatically feed the summary
