Organization

The Organization option maintains district data.

STRS Advance Configuration

What is the current Advance Amount? This is a Non-modifiable field

If the Advance Mode option is checked, the district is in advance

**The STRS Advance flag on the compensations is set to false (space) when the compensation is paid for last time using a pay type of Last Pay Accrued or Last Pay Earnings. This will turn the flag off for all employees last pay in August/September time frame**

The Amount Paid Back will be updated every payroll, adding each payroll STRSAD amount. This is a non-modifiable field.

**The Amount Paid Back is a calculated value and it is calculated for the current year. The district has to December 31, 20XX of that year, to see the amount paid back from last year's advance period. Once it turns to the new year, it is calculating the amount paid back for the new year, which is 0.00, as no advance amounts have been paid yet for this year**

The Submission Timestamp will show the Date and Time of when the district ran the 'Submit Uploaded File to STRS' on Reports/STRS Advance Report. If the district had to be taken out of advance for corrections and re-uploaded new file, the date and time stamp will NOT be removed or changed from the original date of submission.

**Note**After the last pay, if the amount paid back is equal or greater than the advance amount, then the district will come out of advance and the advance flag on the configuration will be un-checked. When the advance flag on the configuration is unchecked, then the amount paid back will always display zero. If the amount paid back is less than the advance amount after the last pay, then the advance flag on the configuration will not be un-checked and the amount paid back will continue to show on the configuration. If wanting to see the total amount paid back, they can check the 'Advance Mode' box, refresh the screen or (close it and re-open) for the value to display and the Amount Paid Back will show. But they will want to remember to un-check that before they move onto their next payroll.

If Amount Paid Back is off, run the SSDT Check STRS Advance Report and compare this to their STRS Advance report to find the difference.
