1. PERSONNEL OFFICE / S-1 RESPONSIBILITIES IN PROCESSING CONTINUATION PAY IN THE BLENDED RETIREMENT SYSTEM. From HRC Force Alignment & Development Division: Continuation pay (CP) is a direct cash payout, like a bonus, available to Service members enrolled in the Blended Retirement System (BRS). AR 637-1 (Army Compenstion and Entitlements Policy), outlines the responsibilities of the Personnel Offices / S1s with preparation and processing CP contracts. Among its responsibilities is the critical requirement to process continuation pay contracts for filing in Soldiers’ Army Military Human Resources Records (AMHRR). Prior to Soldiers separating from service, verification of CP is required. This verification can only be done thru the review of the AMHRR. Based on our initial review, it appears many Personnel Offices / S1s are not processing the CP contract in the Soldier’s AMHRR. U.S. Army Human Resources Command (HRC) is asking for your help to ensure, upon execution, all CP contracts are forwarded for filing in the Soldier’s AMHRR. Visit the following link for more information. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1310092

f. REFORMAT MONITOR APPROVALS DATES. “A recent update has caused the "Modified" date in Monitor Approvals to list multiple date formats. This affects users when they attempt to run an analysis via exporting data and creating dashboards in Excel/Power BI. The new formats are now a fractional sequence and "DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS.0" format. If you do not change the format you will see incorrect future dates. I've attached (at following link) a guide on how to solve this quickly, but also recommend that dates be in a singular universal format across the entirety of Monitor Approvals and HCM (DD-MMM-YYYY). Users are seeing numerous date values on the same queries or inserting different date formats to pull reports (e.g., DD-MMM-YYYY HH:MM:SS). This will help resolve that issue.” Contributed by CW2 Reynold Raj. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1309988
