Adjustment Reporting

Understanding Adjustments

In some situations, employers may need to make changes to information provided in a previously submitted Contribution Report.

Before submitting an adjustment, confirm that the original Contribution Report has been received by SERS by using the Employer Reporting Detail Lookup application in eSERS.

All adjustments must be submitted through eSERS.

Adjustments can be used to add or remove information from a previously submitted Contribution Record.

When an Adjustment May Be Needed

Employers may have to make an adjustment for:

  • Contribution amounts
  • Tax treatment of contributions
  • Days reported
  • Hours reported
  • Contributions reported to the wrong retirement system

If an adjustment needs to be made for unreported information from a prior fiscal year, contact Employer Services to determine the proper reporting process.

Negative Adjustments and Credit Memos

When completing a negative adjustment, the district will accrue a credit memo for employee and employer contributions.

Before the contribution liability is paid, the credit memo will need to be applied.

For instructions on entering in an adjustment and applying your credit memo, see the eSERS Guide.
