2.03: Navigating the Employer Reporting website

The left navigation bar on the Employer Home Page, titled Things to Do, has links to each step of retirement detail reporting, from working on reports to updating your profile. The navigation bar will show different links depending on the type of user access associated with the login ID. Each type of access - Web Administrator, Employer Reporting 1-5, Member Inquiry 1-2 and Payment Processor 1-3 - has different menu choices on this navigation bar. In the image below, the Things To Do menu show options for a Web Administrator user account.

The following is a guide to help you navigate the Employer Reporting website for the various reporting tasks you will need to perform.
