East Windsor, CT - June 21, 2022
The Coalition for Payroll Excellence announced the release of a comprehensive list of 36 data fields that it recommends HCM / Payroll platforms include in retirement plan fields by default..
The VIEWPOINT titled “
RETIREMENT PLAN DATA FIELDS – PREFERRED INDUSTRY PRACTICES FOR HCM/PAYROLL SERVICE PLATFORMS” is posted HERE
These recommendations apply to all defined contribution retirement plans (401(k), 403(b), government 457, 401(a) money purchase and profit-sharing plans.
The VIEWPOINT report lists 5 categories of data to include:
- Indispensable contribution fields
- Compensation amount fields
- Plan loan data
- Indicative data
- Automatic plan features data
This list builds upon prior VIEWPOINTS. The inclusion of personal email address and mobile phone numbers is to enhance the cybersecurity of participant data using two-step authentication. The addition of a date field for plans with an automatic deferral increase feature eases plan administration
TFollowing the preferred practices outlined in the VIEWPOINT will help HCM / Payroll platforms reduce the need for exception reports and ease the burden of data exchanges.
