On August 24, 2020, we shared an announcement with you on the Federal Employee Tax Data fix. We have since learned that when employees are rehired or hired into a new Empl Rec without an active Job record, a new Single/0 Federal Tax Data row is inserted on the Update Employee Tax Data screen.

In order to prevent a new Federal Tax data row from generating, the employee being updated must have an active Job record before the new assignment is added.

Example: A district terminated an employee in all of their positions. A few minutes after all positions were terminated, the district added a new Empl Rec. Since there was a short gap of time where all Empl Records were terminated and the new Empl Rec added, the system treated the new position as New Hire and inserted the S/0 Fed Tax Data row.

Action: It is highly recommended that all Federal Employee Tax Data records for employees rehired or hired into a new Empl Rec since 02/27/20, be reviewed and updated if necessary. The following query will help you identify the impacted employees M_PY_FED_STATE_TAX_DATA.
