Marked obsolete 02/01/2018

OBSOLETE section -  this information no longer applies.


DTL4 records for employees who first worked on or after 9/4/2012 and who elected the Defined Contribution (DC) retirement plan that are still unposted on a payroll report with a begin date prior to 9/12/2015 may be manually adjusted before posting. Unposted DTL4 records for these employees appearing on a payroll report with a begin date on or after 9/12/2015 do not require an adjustment, as ORS will calculate the contributions correctly prior to posting, but they may be adjusted if the reporting unit wishes to do so.

To adjust unposted DTL4 records for employees who first worked 9/4/12 or after and opted for the Defined Contribution plan:

1. Go to Work on Reports and locate the unposted payroll report that contains unposted DTL4 records for the employee.
 
2. Click on Edit, enter the employee's SSN in the box under Option 2, and click on the Add or Edit Record button.
 
3. Select the DTL4 record to open it.

5. The dollar amount in the Member DC Contributions $ field should equal 6% of the gross earnings reported in the Employer Reported Wages field. The percent amount in the Member DC Percent (%) field should be changed from 2.00 to 6.00. See before and after images below.
