Note: If no email address is provided under Personnel/Payroll Extract Distribution List, reports for employees with more than 365 days employed or with zero days employed will not be emailed. However, this information will now be included in the TSDS Extract Errors Report (Extract Errors Reprint button) on the TSDS Level 1 Errors page.
