Error Message
Employment Type ‘F’ cannot be used when the TRS Membership Eligibility Flag is set to No. If you feel the reported information related to this error is correct, please contact TRS.
TAMUS Notes
TRS Team provides two values for TRS membership type:
- Y – TRS member
- N – Not a TRS member
TRS supports the following values for Employment type:
- P = Less than Half-Time
- F = Half-Time or more
- M = Temporary
- D = Student Employment
TAMUS is currently only reporting employment types of P and F.
Note: Employees participating in the optional retirement program (ORP) are exempted from this error.
Cause of error
TRS defined “full time” positions (half time or more) should be enrolled in TRS since they are benefit eligible. The TAMUS process was erroneously evaluating the TRS deduct codes and stop dates to set TRS membership status. Employees that were enrolled in TRS should continue to be reported as TRS eligible
Work around
Process an ED45 record to change the positions TRS Membership Eligibility code to “Y”.
Action by TAMUS System Enterprise Applications
A&M System IT staff will revise the ED40 creation process to correctly populate the TRS Membership Eligibility code.
