How to Create a Retro Import File for Form 119

The process creates the Retro payment Import file for OMERS Form 119 reporting and updates an indicator on the retro records to prevent double reporting on future runs. It contains all amounts paid in the reporting year as retro payments for prior years (as recorded in the Retro Records Maintenance screen).

Once generated, it should be uploaded to the OMERS database (as part of the Year End Reporting) using the appropriate OMERS software.  The process also creates a report showing the reported data.
