Cornerstone provides reports to show activity in the General Ledger and Projects

These reports can be found at https://my.rutgers.edu

Projects are a subset of the General Ledger.  They represent monies earmarked for specific uses, such as faculty research funds, gifts, grants, and endowments. These reports will show you expenses (and revenue is applicable).   

    • 505- Project Cost, Revenue, Budget, Commitments
    • The 505 report will detail various expenses and revenue information regarding your projects. It will also show you information (budget and award number) for your sponsored projects. SAS Guide to the 505 Report Balances

The General Ledger is your organization.  The chart of accounts drives your organization.  These reports will show you the activity and revenue.

Payroll is currently administrated through the Peoplesoft System.  Peoplesoft is not part of Cornerstone, so all payroll reports can be found on the Tableau.

Tableau can be found in Cornerstone on https://my.rutgers.edu and selecting Tableau Reports tile, or on https://bireporting.rutgers.edu

Tableau payroll reports have 4 options:

  • Payroll Distribution- Payroll distribution will show you the bi-weekly payroll by chart of account string or individual.  You are able to run the report by fiscal year, or by dates you select.
  • Employee Status- The Employee Status report will show who is being paid where for the chart string selected (General Ledger, Projects, or both) You are also able to run the report by any date. 
  • Appointment Level Charging Instructions- The Appointment Level Charging Instructions will show each individual combination code for employees for the chart string selected (General Ledger, Projects, both or by individual employee).
  • Department Default ECI-  The Department Default ECI (Employee Charging Instructions) will show the General Ledger Default Charging string in Peoplesoft.

Report 081- Finance Approver Lookup

Cornerstone approvals are not by string, but by person.

Example- Henry Rutgers is a business manager for the SAS Dean's Office.  Andrew Kirkpatrick also works in the SAS Dean's Office. If Andrew needs to enter an expense reimbursement for himself or is processing a transfer, those entries will go to Henry Rutgers because Henry Rutgers is listed as Andrew Kirkpatrick's finance approver.

To see a list of approvers, or to find out who is an approver for an individual, you will need to run report 081.
