Release:

Version 04.10.01.00.00, April 10, 2010

Feature:

Payroll Retirement Calculation

Issue #:

N\A &endash; data manipulation

Change:

Retirement deductions and benefits attached to pay records.  Removed deductions and benefits of group ’retirement’ that were not assigned to a system\plan from pay records.

Reason:

To prevent the creation of error messages.  There were old deductions and benefits that were processed before the error message disallowed them.  We found some districts still had them attached to pay records and removing the stop dates allowed them to process, creating payroll errors.  These pay codes will have the old ded bens removed.  The deductions and benefits will be shown in the Audit History.
