Below are some general guidelines to keep in mind when reviewing Reasonable Compatibility results in KEES.
A RCD will only generate when Family Medical Income Records are used. E&D Income Records can be used to make a Verifications call, but no RCD will generate.
If both the KDOL and TALX Interfaces errored during the Verifications call, RCD will fail. Please submit a KEES Help Desk ticket when this occurs. See below for how to tell if one of the Interfaces errored/failed.
If both the KDOL and TALX Interface calls are successful, KEES is still able to pass RCD even if ‘No Useable Data’ is returned by both Interfaces ($0 Income IS assumed in this scenario).
If one Income Interface (KDOL or TALX) errors, and the other Income Interface is successful, the successful Interface must have found countable income in order for RCD to potentially pass. KEES will not assume $0 Income if ‘No Useable Data’ is returned by the successful Interface. Please submit a KEES Help Desk ticket to report that one Interface errored.

Final KDHE Processing Deadlines - Fiscal Year 2023 has been updated and can be found on the KEES Repository under Other Helpful Information.
Even though work requirements for ABAWDS have been temporarily waived due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Time Limit records should still be entered in KEES according to the guidance listed in the table below. Batches in KEES have been temporarily shut off to allow ABAWDS to receive more than 3 months of Food Assistance in a 36-month period. Making sure Time Limit records have been entered correctly will help ensure data collection for ABAWDS is accurate when there is an end to the Public Health Emergency period and ABAWD months must be tracked and counted again. The current ABAWD period is 10/2022-09/2025. Make sure Time Limit records are added to the current ABAWD period. For guidance on how to add an ABAWD period and Time Limit record in KEES, see the KEES User Manual .
