Based on information received from TRS, the assignment of employees into the TRS90 contribution should be as follows.
To determine if employee is subject to the TRS90 day charge:
- Use the employee Start Date (e.g. August 15, 2017).
- Add 89 days to get to the date the 90th day of employment falls on (October 12, 2017).
- Determine the month the 90th day falls in (October 2017).
- When calculating payroll:
- If month of the pay date is greater than October 2017 – the person pays regular TRS
- If month of the pay date is less than or equal to October 2017 – the person pays TRS90
TRS and TRS90 deduction logic in Workday was updated on January 25, 2018 to comply with TRS rules regarding which deduction should be processed in the month of the 90th day.
