31、 The electronic processing of NASA payroll transactions, distribution of payroll costs, and update of NASA accounting systems and information systems requires coordination of management efforts and system processing within NASA and among other agencies and financial institutions. All of the followin

32、g must work together for an effective payroll process: a. Collection and processing of personnel data from human resource actions to calculate pay consistently with grade, position classification, and other individual entitlements. b. A payroll processing mechanism to receive all the data and do the

33、 electronic calculations. c. Interaction with the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to ascertain the rates for pay, benefits, and other personnel information. d.

45、 of civil servant employees labor cost plus associated overhead type cost (fringe benefits, paid leave, etc) by financial classification structures. Due to full cost, NASAs labor distribution also must fairly and equitably allocate costs to projects and programs NASA has a standard labor distributio

46、n system, the ALDS, used by all Centers, NASA Shared Services Center (NSSC), and Headquarters. 2.3.8.2 Policy. NASA Policy for Labor Distribution is: a. To provide one labor distribution process as an integral part of the payroll system. b. To accumulate cost information for use in budgeting and con

47、trolling costs; performance measurement; determining fees and prices for services; assessing programs; and management decision making.
