Personnel Actions

With Title 5 CFR, Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) Guide to Processing Personnel Actions, and OPM's Central Personnel Data File (CPDF) requirements as its foundation, personnel actions are processed simultaneously with payroll documents to form a comprehensive payroll/personnel history. PPS uses this history (maximum of 26 pay periods) to make retroactive pay adjustments and retrieve employee information automatically. Personnel actions can be entered in the system as they are received, regardless of the effective date. They are held until the effective processing pay period. The system incorporates edit messages, including validation of Social Security number, Agency code, date of last nature of action code, and salary information. These controls ensure the accuracy of reports generated and the accuracy of salary payments.
