Leave Accounting Rollover

Establish Date Parameters to Run the Leave Exception Listing Rollover (158) Report

The Leave Rollover Exception Listing (Report 158) is a USPS leave accounting module batch process that produces a report listing exceptions that occurred during rollover, and indicates when the rollover is successful or when it fails. Report 158 incorporates all employee records on the leave balance table and uses them to perform the following:

• Automatically carry forward FLSA overtime, sick leave, sick pool awarded, extended sick leave, wellness leave, fitness leave, state compensatory time, administrative leave, holiday compensatory time and the maximum allowable vacation leave.
• Credit excess vacation hours to the employee’s sick leave balance.
• Roll sick leave pool balance from fiscal 2019 as the beginning balance for fiscal 2020.
• Change sick leave pool amounts to zeros for the CONTRIBUTED, AWARDED, RETURNED and RECLAIMED fields.

Note: If your agency manually accrues, an LOA must be sent to your agency’s USPS representative prior to running Report 158 to change the LAST 156 ACCR DT field to 08/01/2019.
