In early 2021, new missed pay reason codes were added to the off-cycle pay request module (E-078). To avoid delays and deduction errors, it is critical that you always select the reason code associated with the off-cycle’s unique scenario (see below list). You can find step-by-step off-cycle processing instructions on the UCPath Help Site.
Use the below chart for an overview of current E-078 reason codes:
