What changes can you expect to see when NHRS switches from PensionGold (PG) Version 2 to Version 3? The following links provide insight and comparisons between the two versions.

• Version 2/Version 3 Comparison Memo: A high level comparison memo of the fields in the current reporting file and the future reporting file.
• Version 2/Version 3 Comparison Spreadsheet: A high level comparison spreadsheet of the fields in the current reporting file and the future reporting file. (Document updated June 2022)
• PGV3 File Layout Design Document: A design document providing more detail on the data requirements of the future reporting file. (Document updated June 2022)

These documents were previously shared and reviewed by our Employer Working Group and several of the larger payroll software vendors. With some of these payroll companies, work is already under way on creating test files in the new format. The payroll companies we are currently working with are:

• Tyler Technologies
• BMSI
• Harris Computer
• PowerSchool
• Checkmate

If your payroll provider is not on this list or if you use an in-house payroll system, we would encourage you to share this information and these documents with your IT staff.
