Revised: 5/2021
See below link for a recording walking through the Michigan REP Reporting process: https://recordings.join.me/hokTJvAab0GHPSZ7tH7dEA
This personnel data is to be submitted to the REP the first business day in December and June 30th of each year.
Data Entry for REP
Reporting
The data being retrieved for the REP
report comes from several different areas within SDS. The fields below under the
subheading “REP Layout” show the fields within SDS where data should be entered
in order to be reported on the Michigan REP Report. The REP file will then be
generated by pulling the data from these fields.
Ethnic Code
options for MI Rep Report
The SDS system will allow the use of
Generation Code or Ethnic Code for recording the Race/Ethnicity Codes for REP
Reporting.
If you have not entered Ethnicity
codes into SDS in the past for creation of the REP Report, then use the
Generation Code Field in the Employee Master as stated in the field grid
below.
If you have entered Ethnicity codes in SDS in the “Ethnic Code Field”, the system will correctly report the ethnicity entered in this field without having to also enter the information into the Generation Code field.
This also will report if the field is
filled in with the 6 character code containing 0’s and 1’s as defined by
Michigan and provides for the reporting of multiple racial
individuals.
Summary:
If “Ethnic code” field has
letters I,A,B,H,W,L or any combination of these letters then the appropriate
race or races will be reported.
If “Ethnic code” field has 0’s and
1’s and the filed has six characters entered then the appropriate race or races
will be reported.
If “Generation Code C012” field has
letters I,A,B,H,W,L or any combination of these letters then the appropriate
race or races will be reported.
Note: Letter code values
are.
I = American Indian
A = Asian American
B=
Black
H = Hawaiian
W=White
L = Hispanic
Note:
Six character field values are.
Position 1 = 1 American
Indian
Position 2 = 1 Asian American
Position 3 = 1
Black
Position 4 = 1 Hawaiian
Position 5 = 1
White
Position 6 = 1 Hispanic
Example:
If Ethnic code is entered as
BW then Black and White are indicated. The system will report the code
001010.
If Generation Code C012 is entered as BW then Black and
White are indicated. The system will report the code 001010.
If you have not in the past assigned positions to employees you will need to do so to use the REP reporting in SDS. Please view the links below to create new positions if needed and to assign positions to employees.
