Error Message
Various Errors – including error codes 394, 427, and 511, and 483
TAMUS Notes
For the September 2017 reporting period, TAMUS began to report all compensation to TRS on the TRS TEAM files (only compensation to students was excluded). Some of this compensation was not subject to TRS contributions/deductions. Reporting this compensation to TRS created some errors in TRS TEAM.
Cause of error
TAMUS was reporting all compensation on the RP file sent to TRS
Workaround / Resolution
TAMUS has reviewed the rules on creditable compensation provided by TRS. The rules are outlined at:
https://www.trs.texas.gov/Pages/re_creditable_compensation.aspx
TAMUS has reviewed the list of object codes used in the payroll system. If a compensation item appears on the payroll ledger (payroll history) with one of these object codes, and there is no TRS deduction for that item on the payroll ledger, this compensation will NOT be reported on a RP20 record.
With the implementation of Workday, the earning code table will be used to determine creditable compensation.
Action by TAMUS System Enterprise Applications
A software modification has been made and this change was put in place for the November 2017 reporting period.
