Overview of Retroactive Processing

You can generate the file for the Teachers’ Monthly Contributions Reconciliation (MCR) pension interface that enables reconciliation of the contribution deduction amounts provided for each member.

This is to ensure that contributions are correctly calculated and cover each period of service provided.

Where a member has more than one contract of employment, the calculations are performed separately for each of those employments. This means that each row of data has a pensionable pay amount associated to it and indicators to denote the specific method used to calculate the members contribution deduction.

For members in a regular pattern of work (full-time or part-time regular), Permanent Pensionable Pay is used in the calculation of the tier (except in the case of assumed pay absences). To ensure that the correct pensionable earnings are taken into account when calculating the tier, verify the earnings feeding balance Permanent Pensionable Pay and Assumed Pensionable Pay. Do not feed the Permanent Pensionable Pay balance with supply teacher earnings.

Retroactive earnings elements must feed balance TPS Earnings Retroactive. Do not feed either the Permanent Pensionable Pay or Assumed Pensionable Pay balances with retroactive elements.
