Changing Locality Pay and Duty Station

The employee's location or Duty Station determines that person's Locality Pay. For this reason, when you run the Duty Station Conversion process, the application lists employees who may require a Locality Pay Adjustment action in the Federal Process Log.

Before running the Duty Station Conversion process, you can determine which employees require a Locality Pay Adjustment personnel action by running the Location Occupancy Report. After identifying these employees, you can then take the necessary action, such as processing a NOAC 792 Change in Duty Station or a NOAC 895 Change in Locality Pay.

  1. Create a new location for the destination Duty Station.

    See: Setting up Locations

  2. Run the Location Occupancy Report for each Duty Station that has a change in Locality Pay.

    See: Running the Location Occupancy Report

    The Location Occupancy Report lists the employees' old and new Duty Station and Locality Pay Area.

  3. For those employees whose Locality Pay Area involves a change in Locality Pay, process a NOAC 792 Change in Duty Station or a NOAC 895 Change in Locality Pay and specifying the Locality Pay Adjustment and the new Duty Station.
