NYSLRS is in the process of transitioning employers to their enhanced reporting, which is accommodated in Munis with the NYSLRS Report program.  The new reporting has the ability to report both pre- and post-tax arrears (Service Credit Purchase) amounts.   No additional changes are being made to the legacy reporting options.
