PARTICIPATING TEST SITES: ========================= CHEYENNE, WY HEARTLAND-EAST HCS LITTLE ROCK, AR (C) SIOUX FALLS, SD REMEDY OVERVIEW: ================ 1. HD55311 Clothing allowance not transferring Problem: ------- Site POC reports they change the clothing allowance hourly rate in the PAID system but it is not showing the change in VistA. Also found that the display of the Clothing Allowance field (#565) in the Employee Inquiry reports is incorrect.

Corrected the Edit and Update record 3 layout routine to not truncate the field to 4 characters. Corrected the display of the Uniform Allowance Rate (#565) field in the Employee Inquiry reports.
