Once employees are set up and a payroll can be processed, a DRS extract (PYRERRWA02) can be run to either calculate the deductions and contributions or to extrapolate the necessary information to report to the state.
To run the process, enter:
-
DRS reporting period in form YYYYMM (i.e., 201706)
-
Payroll Period that was last processed (i.e., 1701060)
-
Including Deferments is asking if you want to see all previous periods reported dollars. This is somewhat of a historical view and is valuable when trying to reconcile. It is not suggested on full runs as it makes the extract report extremely long. A “Y” enables seeing the past reported dollars. Anything else will only show current period information.
-
Totals only.
-
Include UNPAID history – This option allows you to include unpaid periods in the extract. This is typically done when running force calcs to include the calculated deductions and contributions. Once a payroll is completed and you want to report that month to DRS, typically the extract is re-run with this option as an “N” to exclude employees who might have been calculated but not paid.
