OSPS E-News ~ Year End Reminders

[Announcements from OSPS to the users of the Oregon State Payroll Application]

Payroll Professionals,

Now that November run 2 has closed here are some reminders for you:


-       Correctives can only be set for November.  If you need to make corrections for any month prior to November 2016 you will need to enter it in the November pay period and set a corrective and November P010 dates

o    For SEIU employees with PERS eligible subject wages, remember any P050 entries will cause employee paid 6% contributions to be deducted from the employee's net pay.   If money owed to employee for month's prior to November is PERS subject, you will need to use Non-PERS subject P050 codes, make P060 entries for employer paid 6% and work with CPERS to ensure the information is correct for the employee's account. See attached document for guidance.


-       If an employee is separating in December (except transfers),

o    You must set December P010 dates.  If the PA is entered, payroll offices can set their own December P010 dates. If the PA is not entered, you can request the OSPS helpdesk to set the P010 dates.

o    You cannot have a November correction for someone who is separating in December.  If you owe the employee money for a pay period prior to December 2016, you will need to make all entries in the December pay period.



-       If you have a highly compensated employee who is separating (not a transfer) and you do a reversal of their November or December check, you will need to verify and possibly manually calculate their social security tax for the month (both payroll runs).

If you have any questions, please let us know.
