Re-Keying your Activity into a 3rd party's website??  Why??
There is no need to re-key your activity into a website as the activity is already in our Sienna POS Ticket system.
If you are not a Sienna customer and you are paying a 3rd party to re-key into a 3rd party website, you may want to consider re-keying into the State's website as there is no cost to re-key into the PA Department of Revenue's website. As mentioned, there is NO re-keying of any activity if you are using our Sienna POS Ticket system or Sienna Ticket system.

Our Daily Drawing Kiosk feature is now available at no additional cost to our customers that are current with their Maintenance and Support. We will be posting a video to our website soon showing the Drawing kiosk while it is being used by one of our customers. The Drawing Kiosk feature eliminates the need for a member to sign a tablet or 'book' as the member's card is scanned and the member is registered for a drawing. Sienna can handle an unlimited number of Daily and/or Weekly Drawings. All activity entered into the Drawing Kiosk is used to create the BLCE Schedule 2C and BLCE Schedule 3 Drawing winners reports. Of course the activity is also reported to the PA Department of Revenue as required, with NO re-keying of activity.

PA Small Games of Chance 2014 Activity Filing Update

Myers Integrated Systems, was contacted by the PA Department of Revenue a little over a week ago with electronic filing changes that we were required to implement and successfully test prior to filing 2014 Activity with the State on behalf of our customers beginning in June (less than 2 weeks away).

We are happy to report that we implemented and successfully tested the changes required with the PA Dept. of Revenue. Unfortunately, the States modification of the filing process requires us to recreate our customers 2014 reporting e-file. Our customers that are impacted will need to have their system updated to our 4.52 version in order to create their 2014 SGOC e-file. We have been contacting our customers and scheduling the upgrade. If you are a current Sienna Database Ticket customer and have not yet been contacted, you will be contacted soon.

According to an article that can be found from the link listed in the Resources section below, The PA State website is already available and accepting entry of 2014 activity. However, when we looked at the States website it did not appear ready to allow users to enter 2014 activity as of this morning (5/24/15) at 9:30 am. 

Finally, Monday is Memorial Day and we honor and appreciate all of our Veterans but especially our Veterans that gave the ultimate sacrifice in serving and protecting our great country. Please know that you and your sacrifice have not been forgotten. Please support your local Veterans fraternal organizations, stop in and purchase several red poppies, you can read about the meaning of the red poppies in the link below.
