Report Period vs. Adjusted Report Period

When creating Regular Payroll (RP) and Employment After Retirement (ER) Adjustment Reports, Reporting Employers (REs) will notice two separate Report Period date fields. 

The first is Report Period. This is the location (or report folder) where your report is stored. This information helps determine which report month tab the adjustment reports are in the RE Portal. The RE cannot change the Report Period since this is based on the last RP or ER report that is in a completed status. 

For example: if you are creating an RP adjustment report and the last RP report completed was for April 2026, your RP adjustment report will use March 2026 as shown in the image below.

The Adjusted Report Period determines the specific report month and year that you are adjusting. This field is within the individual RP or ER record. The month is a drop down and you will type in the year. It is required on all RP25s, ER25s, and ER27s. 

For example: if you need to make corrections to an employee’s time worked that was initially reported incorrectly for February 2026, the Adjusted Report Period on the RP25 record is where you will indicate this information as shown below.
