   Note The following New Contract Load .rpd-json (It can also be found in the NWOCA Report Repository) may be generated to assist in creating a spreadsheet to load new contracts. The report definition will first need to be downloaded and import it into the Redesign to generate it. Instructions on how to import a .json file can be found at Using Report Definitions.  Save the file in .csv format. If preferred, a spreadsheet can be created using the Core/Compensation grid and selecting the appropriate fields from the grid. Click on Report at the top of the grid choosing the Format-Excel-FieldNames. Save the file in .csv format. If you have an existing spreadsheet, update row one to the appropriate column headings.  Save the file in .csv format.
