Active member deduction reporting: Creating your 2026 payroll calendar(s) in MyTRS

Two critical reminders when creating your 2026 calendar(s) in MyTRS:

1. Do not delete or overwrite any of your previous years’ calendars. Please follow the exact steps in Tab 5 of Deduction Reporting in MyTRS to preserve previous payroll calendars, which our staff use to generate service credit reports for members.
   1. The Start Date must be 01/01/2026
   2. The Stop Date must be 12/31/2026
2. Create your 2026 payroll calendar(s) BEFORE you import your January report. Creating your payroll calendar(s) after you import  your January report will result in multiple calendar-related errors.
   To fix these errors:
   1. Create your 2026 payroll calendar(s).
   2. Click Validate before clicking Edit Details. Your report will refresh, and the calendar-related errors will be resolved and removed from the exception report.
