The REMIT - Employer Dues Remittance Entry menu option is used by affiliates to enter dues remittances that have been sent in by employers/contractors. This entry option can be used for entering work assessment dues (i.e. checkoff dues), and/or monthly counter dues. Some employers also deduct the member's monthly counter dues from their salaries, and remit both dues for the member.
Entry can be done by employer or by member name/ID.
The remittance entries are written to a temporary work file so that they can be reviewed before they are posted. Entries can be changed and/or deleted before posting.

You are asked which method you want to use for selecting members for this employer.
+Member Selection Method+ | Employer | | Member | +-----------------------+ |
Select "Employer" if you want the system to automatically display members for the employer. The members will be presented in the remittance order that was set up for this employer (i.e. member name, member ID, employee/clock number). If the members have dues codes, they will be presented first in the dues code order and then by the remittance order. Members will only be presented if:
they are in your local (or council for council users)
they are currently active status (good standing, arrears, transfer)
the member has been flagged with this employer ID
the member does not have a "Retired" classification
Select "Member" if you want to enter individual member names/IDs. The system will look for the member in your local or council. If the member is not found, the system displays a message that the member was not found and that the money should be entered as Other Financial Transaction (because you can not affect the dues paid thru date of a member outside your jurisdiction). If the member is found, but is not flagged with this employer ID, a message is displayed. If the member does not have an "active" status, a message showing the current status is displayed. In both cases, you will be asked if you want to continue with the entry for this member.
