Chapter 8: Transmittal Reporting

Transmittal Report Technical Requirements

Reporting Media Options

Employers have several methods for transmitting retirement data to the Department of Retirement Systems:

• Web Based Employer Transmittal (WBET)

  Recommended for employers with 85 or less employees for regular transmittal reporting, and for all employers for correction transmittal reporting. View WBET procedures in Using the DRS Web Based Services.

• Secure File Transfer (SFT)

  The SFT method allows employers to send their transmittal report over the Internet using FTP SFT software. Many payroll systems can be programmed to download the payroll data directly into this file. See Reporting by Secure File Transfer and Creating an ASCII Format Transmittal Report sections.

• Manual (Paper) Reporters

  Employers, who report manually (with paper) use the Member Earnings Transmittal Report-MRL. See the Manual (Paper) Reporting section.
