2800 Automated Position / Personnel System
1/27/99

T0: Department and Agency Personnel, Human Resource and Affirmative Action Offices

FROM: James W. Sever, Director of Staffing Services

SUBJECT: Disposition of Veterans Credits - Form Number S-203

DATE: 1/27/99


THIS MEMORANDUM REPLACES ADVISORY MEMORANDUM 98-05, ISSUED JULY 10, 1998 ON THIS TOPIC IN THIS SECTION. THE INFORMATION UNDER "DISPOSTION OF VETERANS CREDITS FORM NUMBER S-2O3" HAS CHANGED. IN ALL OTHER RESPECTS THIS MEMO REMAINS UNCHANGED.

The NYSTEP system is designed to provide operating agencies within New York State government with an on-line method for processing personnel transactions. The implementation of the New York State Electronic Personnel system has resulted in the following changes in our processes.

Disposition of Veterans Credits Form Number S-203

  • Agencies will still be responsible for retaining one copy of the S-203 for their files and giving one signed copy of the form to the employee, however,
  • Agencies will now be responsible for faxing to this Department a copy of the form on the day that the personnel transaction is submitted via NYSTEP. The appointment can not be approved until the S-203 is received. The fax number for this is (518) 457-5497.

Notice of Discipline

Agencies are no longer required to submit the Notice of Discipline to the Department of Civil Service in order for DCS to approve an appointment. Agencies will be responsible for maintaining the documentation in their files.

Rein Dir

Rein Dir is the code used when an agency is directed to reinstate an employee based on an administrative action (i.e., court order). Only the Department of Civil Service can enter the code Rein Dir. Agencies will need to contact their status examiner relative to the documentation required prior to the transaction being submitted via NYSTEP.

Clearance for Research Scientist

Clearance for Research Scientist titles will be done off line (agencies will not use the RIF system). Agencies who wish to fill a Research Scientist position (at any level) will need to contact Betsy Gordon, (518) 457-3626 in the Reemployment Services Unit to obtain a clearance number prior to entering a transaction into NYSTEP.

Changing Vets Status

Changes to an employee's veteran status can now be made directly in NYSTEP by agencies on the Personal Data 2 panel.
