They include: * Updates to the garnishment and Insurance Force Entry worksheets * Changes to the OSPA Reference Manual structure and layout Checklists, Worksheets, Processing Tools For those of you who noticed that the garnishment spreadsheet was gone and asked for its return, we heard you! Julie has enhanced and updated it and it is back in our On-line Resources. It is now a workbook that has separate spreadsheets for child support, creditor, U.S. D.O.E. student loan and taxes. Check it out under Checklists, Worksheets, Processing Tools: http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/SCD/OSPS/docs/processtools/garnishments.xls Also, under Checklists, Worksheets, Processing Tools, Julie added fields to the Insurance Force Entry worksheet to calculate the entries for the P070 Deductions and Deduction Adjustments screen. While you are on the web, also check it out: http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/SCD/OSPS/docs/processtools/insforce.xls OSPA Reference Manual, http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/SCD/OSPS/Pages/referencemanual.aspx Allison separated the Glossary from the Reference Manual and split the manual in two parts - OSPA System Related Documentation and Payroll Processes. The System Related Documentation includes Codes, Screen Guides, Report Guides and Interfaces. The documents in the Payroll Processes section are alphabetical by topic (no longer separated by Entry Guide, Handbook or Recommended Practice). We will update the references in the documents as we have reasons to make edits to the documents. The left navigation panel on all of our web pages now includes separate entries for Glossary, OSPA System Docs and Payroll Procedure Guidance. Note: if you use the Reference Manual link in the right navigation panel on the OSPS Home page, be patient - it takes a little while to load and display the documents. We hope these changes will make it easier to find information and make OSPA entries.

For the next few months we worked with agencies and P&D to design a new version of the timesheet (single page) that would allow for expanded hours for the schedule forecasting. OSPS has completed the design, programming and testing for this new single-copy timesheet (both short and long) and will move the changes into OSPA production soon. June is the final pay period that the multi-copy NCR timesheets will be printed by Publishing and Distribution. Please share this information with your employees that currently use the NCR timesheets. The attached document provides more detail on the implementation and timing for this change.
