MISSING PCARS INACTIVE DUTY POINTS STATUS (ANG, AFRC)

  • Published
MISSING PCARS INACTIVE DUTY POINTS STATUS (ANG, AFRC) - The Air Reserve Personnel Center and Air Force Personnel Center are collaborating to correct a Point Credit Accounting and Reporting System(PCARS) and Reserve Component Pay System disconnect that may affect Air National Guard and Reserve members who perform inactive duty training (IDT).

In most cases IDT points for the second training period of the day have not been updating and in some instances points for both training periods have not posted. Missing points for the second training period of the day from January 1 to August 25, 2011 have been corrected by an AFPC-initiated data load. Over the next few weeks all missing inactive duty points and service history lines for prior Retention/Retirement Years will be corrected and AFPC will follow up with biweekly updates to guard against IDT points that fail to post to PCARS in the future. Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve members should periodically consult the vMPF to verify points are updating properly and notify the Total Force Service Center at 800- 525-0102 if you have any questions.
