Retiree Self-Service E-Gov Travel System (ETS)

ATTENTION - E2 USERS

Single sign on (CAC) for E2 is currently causing profiles issues. Please refrain from using and/or creating CAC E2 profiles until further notice. Using the user name and password (historical E2 log on process) should be used at this time, at E2 User ID and password

ETS ERROR

ETS is currently producing an error when creating new accounts or updating user IDs/EMPLIDs to current accounts. We are aware of the issue and working with the contractors to get this resolved as quickly as possible. If a member who does not have an ETS account is needing to book upcoming travel with a departure date within the next 5-7 days, they will need to call the TMC/SATO to make any reservations and insist that the booking be made without a profile.

Duplicate Relocations Found in mLINQS from Unauthorized Manual Entries

There have been several duplicate PCS relocations found in mLINQS causing a plethora of issues.

AO’s and/or proxies should NOT be entering relocations manually in mLINQS without contacting PPC first (customer care ticket) as relocations should be processed from DA to mLINQS. Below are the steps to take if a relocation has not processed from DA to mLINQS.

If the PCS relocation has been put in a “ready” status in DA and is not found in mLINQS :

Contact PPC customer care via trouble ticket subject “re-submit to mLINQS” and PPC will manually re-submit this relocation over to mLINQS.
If PPC cannot process this relocation over to mLINQS due to a systems error, we will work with the AO on manual entry.
Relocations input using the legacy process should still submit a ticket to finish those claims using the legacy process calculator method. Only if they have already started using the legacy process.
Any manual input relocations into mLINQS outside of this process will require an AO/proxy re-training and possible revocation of elevated permissions.

RETIRED PAY

PPC is addressing a processing delay due to systematic issues and a shortage of personnel. This is causing a delay in response efforts for VA offsets, AEWs, CRDP, and CRSC disability. You remain our primary concern. We want to assure you that we are fully committed to resolving these issues promptly and handling your cases with utmost care and accuracy.

PPC Assumes Technical Authority for YN

PRINT | E-MAIL

Sept. 6, 2024 —

Good Day,

Effective 1 October 2024, the Pay & Personnel Center (PPC) will assume all responsibilities associated with exercising Technical Authority for all Yeoman and military pay and personnel administration. As Technical Authority for military pay and personnel administration, PPC now has the responsibility, accountability, and authority to establish, monitor, and approve technical standards, tools, processes, and best practices, and to certify conformance with standards, requirements, policy, and statute. From 1 October 2024 on, PPC will be the central repository for all information and questions regarding yeoman technical authority.

What does this mean for Yeoman in the field?

Not a lot will change initially for YN in the field. PPC has been and will remain the Coast Guard’ s number one source for all pay and personnel administration information. In the coming months, YN will notice significant improvements to the delivery/availability of services and products that PPC provides. Serving as the Technical Authority, PPC will strive to provide YN with timely and concise communications, make processes more efficient and user friendly, and give YN resources to bolster their ability to provide exceptional support to their customers.

What we need from You?

Culture. Help us market PPC as the number one resource for answers and support. Please drive your folks to PPC, not social media. PPC is currently developing a Teams page dedicated to providing YN a collaborative virtual workspace where PPC will pass pertinent information, deliver new products, and provide access to subject matter experts to aid in answering questions from YN.
Feedback. Feedback from YN in the field is critical to ensuring PPC can respond to emergent trends, provide support to our customers, and deliver resources at the speed that you need them.
Expectation management. Please help us manage expectations as PPC works diligently to revolutionize the way we support you. Also, please note that PPC does not own the HR systems (Direct Access, travel systems, etc.) that you all utilize. We are a customer just like you and, in most cases, if you are experiencing challenges, we are as well (sometimes on a much larger scale).

We are in this together and it is PPC’s intention to build a stronger relationship with the Yeoman and HR professionals across the Coast Guard. We will strive to be the resource that you all deserve. Thank you for all that you do!

Sincerely,

The Pay & Personnel Center
