Payroll deadlines for the 2026 year-end closing
The year-end closing is approaching, and SDU HR Payroll needs to receive payroll material in good time. Therefore, send the material as early as possible so that we can plan the final payroll runs of the year and ensure that as many payments as possible are included in the 2026 financial year.
Deadline for fees and other separate remuneration
You must send the following types of payroll material no later than 27 November 2026 if the material is to be included in processing for the year-end closing:
- Assessment fees.
- Other fees.
- Guest lecturers.
- External examiner remuneration.
- Examination invigilators.
- Forensic medicine on-call duties.
SDU HR Payroll processes the material depending on the specific case for payment in mid-December, late December or mid-January.
Deadline for hours in mTime
If you are TAP and register hours in mTime, your November hours must be approved no later than 7 December 2026 at 10.00 to be included in the payroll run with payment in mid-December.
If you approve the hours after the deadline, they will be included as far as possible in the ordinary payroll run with payment in late December.
