Reserve Pay Summary

The Reserve Pay Summary (RESP) page provides reserve balance information for contract pay employees. The reserve balance can be viewed as the amount of money withheld (negative value) from or paid out (positive value) to an employee in order to smooth the employee's paycheck across pay periods. The balance information for this page is generated by the payroll process. If the regular contract pay model is used, the reserve balance can be updated if the Allow CON/RES Balance Update parameter on the Site Specific Parameters (SPAR) page is selected and set to Y.

If the smoothing contract pay model is used (USE NEW CONTRACT MODEL on the Site Specific Parameters (SPAR) page is selected and set to Y), then the reserve balance can be updated when Allow CON/RES Balance Update and CREATE RESERVE SUMMARY RECS on the Site Specific Parameters (SPAR) page are set to Y. The creation of reserve summary records is typically part of the data conversion process only.

The One-Time Payment transaction can be created in one of the following ways:

• Select the Create action on the Transaction Catalog.

• Select the Create Reserve Pay Summary row-level action on the Reserve Pay Summary tab of the Contract Management (CONM) activity folder.
