2. ISSUE 130401:  REFERENCE MPA 03/13 POTENTIAL BAH IN-TRANSIT OVERPAYMENT 
DUE TO PCS MOVE.

A. THERE IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH BAH PAID WHEN THE SG03 TRANSACTION IS PROCESSED. 
THIS PROBLEM AFFECTS SINGLE SERVICE MEMBERS WHOSE PCS MOVE WAS IN DECEMBER 2012
AND THEIR SG03 TRANSACTION POSTED IN JANUARY 2013. THE DJMS SYSTEM IS NOT CHANGING 
THE BAH IN-TRANSIT TO A BAH-PARTIAL ENTITLEMENT AS CODED IN THE SGO3 TRANSACTION.
DJMS IS ALSO NOT POSTING BAH-P FOR 2013.  THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN A MEMBER'S
DATE OF DEPARTURE LAST DUTY STATION AND ARRIVAL DATE ARE BOTH IN THE PRIOR
CALENDAR YEAR. A PRODUCTION/SYSTEM TEST PROBLEM HAS BEEN WRITTEN AND APPROVED.
A NEW MPA WILL BE ISSUED ONCE SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION IS COMPLETE. 

B. TO AVOID OVERPAYMENT, DFAS-CL WILL BE CORRECTING THESE CASES FROM JANUARY
2013.  COMPLETED CASES WILL BE REFLECTED IN FEBRUARY 2013 LES.  NEW CASES
SHOULD BE HANDLED AT EACH FINANCE OFFICE STARTING FEBRUARY 2013 AND CONTINUE
THRU-OUT THE YEAR. PSD/CSD/PERSOFF NEED TO PULL MANAGEMENT NOTICES WITH PARTIAL 
REJECT CODE "TDY" AND VERIFY BAH ENTITLEMENT AND PROCESS CORRECTIVE ACTION AS NEEDED.

C. CORRECTIVE ACTION WILL BE AS FOLLOWS:
   1. 3502 TRANSACTION TO START 2013 BAH-P (IF 35 FID REFLECTS ZEROES IN THE
      EFFECTIVE DATE AND ZEROES IN THE ENTITLEMENT AMOUNT).
   2. 3503 TRANSACTION FOR ANY 2012 MISSING BAH-P ENTITLEMENT IF APPLICABLE.
   3. 3505 TRANSACTION TO CHANGE BAH-T TO BAH-P (IF 35 FID IS CLOSED ENTRY).

D. IF THE WORK-AROUND DOES NOT WORK OR THE 3505 TRANSACTION REJECTS WITH AN
ERROR CODE "ZDY", THE FINANCE OFFICE SHOULD SEND A DWOWS CASE TO DFAS-CL
WITH A DETAILED MESSAGE OF THE PROBLEM.
