KI0094 – Maymester Payrolls containing SUM Earn Codes
Please distribute the following as needed. Action is required.
Follow-up Information
Modification to correctly assign SUM earnings to only those employees that worked in the SUM paygroup for May will be Released on Thursday morning prior to 8:00 a.m., May 29, 2008.
Prior to the modification when the Populate TRS/ORP Temp Table (BORIF04A) process was run, employees that followed an employee containing SUM earnings for May, were incorrectly populated with the SUM earnings values from the previous row until a change in Plan or Earnings type occurred.
Institutions that have run the Populate TRS/ORP Temp Table (BORIF04A) process prior to Release 3.31a should rerun the process to ensure accurate results. It is recommended that the reconcilement of the TRS/ORP Report be performed prior to creating the TRS/ORP File for submission to TRS.
The original Known Issue is shown below:
Subject
Maymester Payrolls containing SUM Earn Codes may produce TRS Monthly Reporting data errors.
Purpose
To notify institutions that a problem has been identified with the TRS Monthly Reporting Process in regards to the Maymester SUM Earn Codes which may result in erroneous data being populated for some employees.
Functional Impact
When the Populate TRS/ORP Temp Table process is run, users may have employees that have the Summer Gross Amount, Summer DED Amount and Summer Employer DED Amounts populated in error.
Institutions that produced Maymester Payrolls containing the SUM Earn Codes are advised to verify participant amounts. All occurances may not be identified in the Trace File. The Summer Gross Amount, Summer DED Amount and Summer Employer DED Amounts may be adjusted by using the Edit TRS/ORP Temp Table function prior to creating the final report and submitting the monthly file.
Institutions that did not produce Maymester Payrolls will not be effected.
OIIT has identified the cause of the issue and is working to develop and release a modificaton.
