DESCRIPTION
Contribution Manager represents an upgrade to our contribution processing model and is the new way that we process contributions.
Contribution Manager is a secure web based collaborative workspace that streamlines the contribution process between the client and T. Rowe Price and gives plan sponsors more time to focus on other tasks.
Plan Sponsors/Payroll Administrators will review, modify and approve their contribution and loan repayment totals in Contribution Manager before funding is sent.
No changes to the layout or how the file is sent are needed.

HIGHLIGHTED – FEATURES/BENEFITS
Accessibility – Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and allows our clients to process transactions at their convenience.
Automated instructions – Automates the creation of wire documentation.

HOW IT WORKS – High Level
Step #1: Contribution file sent to TRP
Step #2: TRP reconciles the file and Client receives notification
Step #3: Client accesses Contribution Manager (to ‘submit’)3a: Client can review TRP entered “corrected pp amounts”/historical notes3b: Client enters “corrected participant amounts” and notes
Step #4: TRP will prepare client’s “corrected participant amounts” for posting (if any) and Client receives notification
Step #5: Client accesses Contribution Manager to approve the totals and wire documentation is created
Step #6: Funding occurs and transactions are posted to the recordkeeping system
Step #7: Reports are available in Contribution Manager

PARTICIPANT DETAIL WITH CORRECTED AMOUNTS
TRP identifies and resolves differences between what is on the file and what will post to the recordkeeping system by entering “corrected participant amounts.”
The moment that TRP is finished resolving all differences – an email will be sent notifying you that the file has been “reconciled.”

HOW IT WORKS – STEP 3
Step #3: Client accesses Contribution Manager
• The user logs into Contribution Manager via the Plan Sponsor Resource Center.
• TRP will work with you to set up the initial user’s access when Contribution Manager is rolled out to you. Thereafter, access to Contribution Manager works just like the other TRP sponsor tools: your authorized approver grants access to CM via the User Authorization System.
• The first screen presented is the Summary Screen which is the highest level screen within Contribution Manager.

HOW IT WORKS – STEP 4
Step #4: TRP will prepare client’s “corrected participant amounts” for posting (if any) and Client receives notification
Shortly after you “submit” the file back to TRP, we will be notified. Once we have prepared all additional corrections for posting, you will receive notification that the file is ready for approval.

HOW IT WORKS – STEP 5
Step #5: Client accesses Contribution Manager to approve the totals and wire documentation is created
• Once you receive the notification, you can log into contribution manager and validate/approve your totals.
• If locations are segregated, the file will not be deemed to be approved until all locations have provided approval.
• At the point that the final approval is received, funding documentation will be created (wire/ACH debit).

Step #7: Reports are available in Contribution Manager
• There are 4 standard reports available in Contribution Manager:

• These reports are available 2 days after the file posts to the recordkeeping system and are available in both Excel and PDF format.
