Updated on

Overview

This job aid shows Benefits Officers how to address out-of-state ZIP code errors where the ZIP code is missing from the PSR Cross Reference Table.

Background

  • Currently, when a retiree moves to another state, if the effective date of change of address occurred while the employee is Active, errors occur.
  • Out-of-state ZIP code errors can show up in CSUBAS nightly process reports, on the PSR Interface, or during manual BAS Event processing on the On-Demand Event Maintenance page.
  • The BAS Event cannot be processed until the error is addressed.
