12-P-022 New Organization Dues Deduction Codes ORG902 and ORF902 and Dues Rate Increases for ORG900 and ORG901 (Supersedes 02-p-011)

Please be advised of the creation of a third category for organization dues for “associate members” of the Fort Hays State University-American Association of University Professors. Therefore, a new organization dues deduction code (ORG902) and a corresponding fee deduction code (ORF902) will be added in SHARP, effective with the payroll period beginning February 19, 2012 and ending March 3, 2012, paid March 16, 2012 to administer membership dues deductions for participating employees. Currently, organization dues must be entered into employee general deduction data in SHARP as two separate deduction codes: one organizational dues deduction code and one corresponding fee deduction code.

The bi-weekly deduction amount will be $11.94 for ORG902 and $.06 for ORF902 for total membership dues of $12.00 per bi-weekly payroll period. Also, existing organization dues deduction codes ORG900 and ORG901 are increasing effective with the payroll period beginning February 5, 2012 and ending February 18, 2012, paid March 2, 2012. The bi-weekly deduction amount will be $8.94 for ORG900 and $.06 for ORF900 for total membership dues of $9.00 per bi-weekly payroll period. The bi-weekly deduction amount will be $13.94 for ORG901 and $.06 for ORF901 for total membership dues of $14.00 per bi-weekly payroll period.
