Reconciliation Action Codes Table

Reconciliation action codes are used by Agencies to describe which system(s) needs to be updated as part of resolving a discrepancy. After an Agency researches a discrepancy, it will enter one of the codes listed below in CLER.

Code	Description	Explanation
601	Payroll/Personnel Office Correction Required - Processed Through Payroll System	Use this code when only the payroll office’s system needs to be updated. At its discretion, the payroll office may send the carrier a confirmation of the fact that the payroll office records were updated.
610	Carrier Correction Required - Submitted By Payroll/Personnel Office Through CLER	Use this code when only the carrier’s system needs to be changed and the carrier was informed of those changes through the use of CLER’s 2809 or 2810 online forms.
611	Carrier Correction Required - Submitted By Payroll/Personnel Office By Fax	Use this code when only the carrier system needs to be changed and the payroll/personnel office informed the carrier via a fax of the SF Standard Form 2809 or SF Standard Form 2810 form.
612	Carrier Correction Required - Submitted By Payroll/Personnel Office By Mail	Use this code when only the carrier system needs to be changed and the payroll/personnel office informed the carrier via a copy of the SF Standard Form 2809 or SF Standard Form 2810 through the mail.
620	Correction Required By Carrier And Payroll Office - Processed Through Payroll System	Use this code when both the payroll office and the carrier need to correct their records.
630	Action Required By Another Payroll/Personnel Office	Use this code when the enrollee is no longer the responsibility of your payroll office but has, instead, transferred to another payroll office.
640	No Action Required	Use this code when neither the payroll office nor carrier needs to make changes to their records. For example, this code would be used in conjunction with reconciliation reason codes: 540 Enrollee In Unpaid Status - No Deductions for Pay Period. 542 Enrollee Reported Under Two Payroll Offices - Transfer During The Pay Period. 560 Discrepancy Due to Timing.
