The Department of Personnel Information Services Division is committed to providing assistance and solutions to agencies and employees during payroll processing days.

 

Each payroll period, HRMS generates critical information about payroll processing. DOP provides this information to agencies to help them identify error types, who is affected, why errors occurred, and how to resolve errors.

Payroll errors: Generated during payroll processing and do not allow the employee to continue and complete the process. (These are available on your agency’s spool files in HRMS. After a noon process on Day 3, remaining redlines will be posted above.)

 

RPCIPE (posting) errors: Generated after payroll calculations have completed and caused by a variety of conditions. Use the Common RPCIPE Errors for helpful tips on how to research and correct.

 

ALAS (claim/apportionment) errors: Generated after payroll calculations have completed and caused by claims from prior periods that are not offset in the period they were created, and from retro calculations across business funding lines. These errors will cause the ALAS financial program to be out of balance and will not be allowed in the final payroll process.

 

Locked Employees: Employees with errors for a particular payroll that caused them to be locked out of final processing. Agencies will need to take steps to ensure these employees are paid outside the system and adjustments are made in HRMS.
