REF B IS DOD INSTRUCTION 1340.26 CHANGE 1, ASSIGNMENT AND SPECIAL DUTY ASSIGNMENT PAY.// RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN announces the annual Special Duty Assignment Pay (SDAP) recertification process for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024. In line with references (a) and (b), Commanding Officers (CO) are required to annually review and certify the entitlement to SDAP for each Sailor in their command. This recertification is vital for verifying that every Sailor assigned to an eligible billet remains qualified to fill the billet and is receiving the correct SDAP level. 2. Recertification will commence upon the release of this NAVADMIN and will continue through 30 September 2024. The Community Management Support Branch (BUPERS-328) will stop SDAP for all SDAP recipients at each command who fail to complete the recertification process. 3. A complete list of authorized skills and pay amounts can be obtained from the MyNavy HR website at: https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Career- Management/Community-Management/Enlisted-Career-Admin/SRB-SDAP-Enl-Bonus/, then scroll to "SDAP Levels with Admin Updates." 4. Recertification process: a. Obtain a summary of the authorized SDAP billets for the command using the MyNavy Assignments database. This is the filtered Billet Based Distribution (BBD) report for the command that only lists the Sailors who are currently receiving SDAP. (1) This report may not be exhaustive. Certifying commands must verify their entire complement of Sailors in order to validate SDAP payments to those who may not be electronically gained to the command or Sailors who are gained, but are erroneously being paid SDAP. (2) Commands without an Activity Manning Manager may request access to Command Career Management System-Interactive Detailing using the procedure outlined in the following MyNavy HR web address: https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Portals/55/Career/Detailing/MyNavyAssignment/My Navy_Assignment_Access.pdf. Certifying commands must have access to all subordinate Unit Identification Codes (UIC). (3) Commands may contact BUPERS-328 via mill_sdap_recert.fct@navy.mil or (901)874-3260/DSN 882 for additional assistance in obtaining their SDAP BBD report. b. Validate the entire command using the SDAP BBD report from the MyNavy Assignments database as follows: (1) Next to each Sailor listed on the report, simply annotate the SDAP level and the associated Navy Enlisted Classification for which SDAP is authorized in line with the most current SDAP eligibility chart. Any erroneous SDAP payments must be corrected through the Transaction Service Centers (TSC) upon discovery. (2) In the event of an unposted activity loss or strength loss that resulted in a Sailor who has already transferred being still listed in the BBD report, simply line out or delete the line item. (3) Sailors who are not listed in the report due to a delayed or unposted activity gain should be added to the list and validated appropriately. (4) Once each Sailor at the command is validated, a signed letter from the CO or acting (not by direction) will be addressed and forwarded to Director, Military Community Management (BUPERS-3) with the SDAP BBD report as an enclosure. The contents of the validation letter will include a statement from the CO certifying that a complete review of all authorized SDAP billets at the command was conducted and all discrepancies are rectified or are in the process of being resolved. The letter will also contain the e- mail address and phone number of a suitable point of contact at the command and should also contain a list of all pending discrepancy resolutions. (5) Send the command SDAP recertification letter and enclose the SDAP report via encrypted e-mail to BUPERS-3 at: mill_sdap_recert.fct@navy.mil. The e-mail subject line must contain the UIC of the certifying command. (6) If a command has trouble sending the encrypted e-mail, ensure the encryption e-mail certificate is posted to the global address list. If there are still encryption issues, contact BUPERS- 328 for additional options. (7) E-mail is the preferred method, but if the command needs to send the report via regular mail, please send to: Bureau of Naval Personnel (BUPERS 3) Military Community Management ATTN: (BUPERS 328) BLDG 453 RM 338 5720 Integrity Drive Millington TN 38055-0003 5. Should a service record or payment update become necessary, each command is responsible for completing this action via their servicing TSC. All corrective transactions older than 240 days will be processed by BUPERS-328 via an emailed request submitted to mill_incen_pays.fct@navy.mil. 6. Commands can check the status of their SDAP recertification at: https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Career-Management/Community- Management/Enlisted-Career-Admin/SRB-SDAP-Enl-Bonus/, then scroll to the SDAP section and click on "SDAP Delinquent List." Immediate Superior in Commands are strongly encouraged to use this site to ensure all subordinate commands have completed the recertification process. Please allow 5 to 10 days after submission for the webpage to be updated. 7. BUPERS-328 is the sole authority to resume SDAP payments for commands whose SDAP payments were stopped as a result of failing to complete the annual recertification on time. SDAP can be restored for delinquent commands upon completion of the aforementioned recertification process. 8. The point of contact is BUPERS-328, mill_sdap_recert.fct@navy.mil, (901) 874-3260/DSN 882. 9. This NAVADMIN will remain in effect until October 2024 unless superseded prior to that date. 10.
