The wholly separate amount is displayed for the pay period if any. This field should only be used if part of the contract total includes a wholly separate amount.
This field is only enabled if the TRS Position Code is 01, 02, or 05. If so, type the total salary for the current pay period that is not subject to the State Base.
Example:
An employee’s primary job is a teacher and his extra duty job is a bus driver. Since the bus driver salary is not subject to the State Base, it is recommended to set up the bus driver duty as a separate job or as an extra duty without Expense 373 selected. In this case, a wholly separate amount does not need to be entered as it is already excluded.
However, if the employee’s teacher and bus driver salary is lumped together in the contract total, the bus driver salary (extra duty compensation) is not subject to the Stat Min because it is wholly separate from his main duties; therefore, the annual bus driver salary amount should be indicated in the Wholly Sep Amt field.
