Using Web*Merit
Part of the Web*Financials suite of budgeting tools, Web*Merit allows managers to process their employees’ merit increases online. All merit increases must be processed via Web* Merit and will be loaded directly into Banner upon final approval.
This guide is split into the following sections:
Accessing the Database
Log in to Web*Financials. If you are a manager or department administrator who does not currently have access to Web*Financials, follow the instructions on the Web*Financials page for gaining access.
Select Web*Merit.
Reporting & Submitting Reports
Once you have accessed the Web*Merit system and entered your employees’ merit-based salary increases, you can also view several reports. To do so, select Reports from the menu screen, enter your department number, and select the type of report you wish to see. Please note that the summary report is only available for divisional roll-up accounts.
Detail Report
Department administrators should send signed Detail Reports to their division’s Senior Vice President or Vice President. After evaluation, the division head will print, sign, and approve the final reports to be submitted to HR.
Merit Increase Graph
Also accessible from the Analysis drop-down menu, this graph should be printed and included with your Detail Report.
Divisional Summary Report
Available only at the divisional roll-up level, this report allows division heads to review pool balances by department. The report will display the unrestricted pool amounts, unrestricted used amounts, remaining unrestricted balance, and other funding amounts used for merit increases.
Generating Merit Increase Letters
The Departmental Detail Report allows departments and divisions to easily create their merit increase letters through mail merge. Download the report from the Departmental Detail Report page and complete your mail merge as per usual.
