Version 05.13.10.00.13, May 15, 2013 - addendum release |
|
Feature: |
S-275 |
Change: |
The Generate Plan Detail will now run when an S-275 report template is printed directly from the template browse screen. Generate Plan Detail is required to run if changes have been made to the Salary Negotiations Plan and "Create the Transmittal File” or "Final Transmittal for Fiscal Year” have been selected on the S-275 report template. |
Reason: |
In some cases, the Generate Plan Detail was not required to run before generating the S-275 transmittal file. |

Change: |
Updated the Select Salary Negotiations Plan screen on the S-275 report template to use the standard Skyward selection screen.

Reason: |
The Plan Selection Screen did not display all records on the screen. Additionally, the values in the Plan Selection screen could not be exported to Excel and lookup was by Plan Number. |

Change: |
The "% Time" data on the report and transmittal file have been corrected to sum to 1000. |
Reason: |
In some cases, there was a rounding issue and the total percent of time did not equal 1000, even though the assignment equaled 100%. This was causing Error 73 &endash; Total Assignment Percents Do Not Equal 100.0 when submitting the transmittal file to OSPI. |

Feature: |
WESPaC S-275 (Preliminary S-275 with new Ethnicity\Federal Race fields) |
Change: |
The S-275 Report and Transmittal File have been modified to include the new Ethnicity and Federal Race fields required for federal and state reporting. This is a temporary version of the S-275 Report and Transmittal File developed specifically to help clients identify those employees with missing race codes and assist in the timely submission of the initial transmittal. Although the transmittal has been updated to include the new fields, in keeping with the annual S-275 process to prevent premature submission of incomplete or inaccurate files, transmittal files should not be created until after the 2010-2011 S-275 Personnel Reporting Instructions are published and the annual changes are made and released to production. The modifications for this temporary version are:
New Errors\Warnings:
Error 4 occurs when Ethnicity = N and there is no federal race code checked for the employee.
Warning 4 occurs when Ethnicity = Y and there is no federal race code. A missing federal race code when ethnicity = Y will not cause the transmittal file to be rejected, but OSPI will consider this condition an error. The warning will be changed to an error in a later release before the final submissions are due in December.
Record 315 format changes:
I - American Indian or Alaska Native A - Asian B - Black\African American P - Hawaiian\Pacific Islander W - White 1 to all 5 race codes can be reported (i.e. W, or BI, or PABWI, or any combination). |

Although the transmittal has been updated to include the new fields, in keeping with the annual S-275 process to prevent premature submission of incomplete or inaccurate files, transmittal files should not be created until after the 2010-2011 S-275 Personnel Reporting Instructions are published and the annual changes are made and released to production. |

Issue #: |
218858 |
Change: |
The error\warning messages at the end of S-275 Personnel Report were modified. In order to make identifying and correcting errors easier, there are now 3 messages. One message identifies the number of employees edited, one message identifies the number of SPI edit errors, and one message identifies the number of formatting errors due to missing values or over-sized data. Also, the S-275 Report was modified so the footer "SPI edit errors exist" prints only if SPI edit errors exist. Previously, if SPI errors were ever encountered when running the report, the footer continued to print on subsequent runs, even if all the errors had been corrected. |

Issue #: |

The S-275 Edit Journal was modified to round the calculated full-time contract days to one decimal place as specified per OSPI S-275 Instructions. Previously, if the calculated full-time contract days’ value is, for example, 180.9999999992, the value does not get rounded up to 181.0 days and Warning 43 is generated even though the days on the assignment\position calendar and the days printed on the S-275 Personnel Report are 181. |

S-275 (Suppress Hours for Suffix 1 and 3 Assignments) |
Issue #: |
216714 |
Change: |
The S-275 report and transmittal file were modified so any hours that exist on suffix 1 or 3 assignments will not be printed on the report or included in the transmittal file. If hours exist on assignments with duty code suffixes of 1 or 3, then the HRS\YR field on the S-275 Report will be left blank and zeroes will be exported to the transmittal file. The SPI S-275 Edit Journal was modified to suppress Warning 48 &endash; Excessive Assignment Hours Per Year when hours exist on assignments with suffixes 1 or 3. The Data Validation Report was also modified to eliminate the S-275 warning generated when there are hours on assignments with duty code suffixes of 1 or 3. |
Reason: |
Approved enhancement. |
Menu: |
HR\SN\WS\SR\SR HR\PR\WS\RE\SR\SR |
Implementation Notes: |
Clients should note the loss of visibility on the S-275 and Data Validation Reports of any hours that do exist on suffix 1 and 3 assignments. Therefore, clients may need to find an alternate means of viewing hours on suffix 1 and 3 assignments for verification of appropriate duty code suffix and confirmation that the hours should be suppressed. |

Change: |
Upon creation, S-275 export files will be automatically transmitted to OSPI. |
Reason: |
OSPI requirements |
Menu: |
HR\SN\WS\SR |
Implementation Notes: |
Each time the data extract file is generated, the file name will be APP<ccddd>D<yymmdd>T<hhmmss>C.DAT where <ccddd> is the county district code, <yymmdd> is the year, month, and day of creation, <hhmmss> is the time of creation, and C represents a complete extract file as opposed to a partial or update extract file. This is the name the OSPI system expects. For example, a transmittal file for Bethel School District, County and District # 27403, created on October 21, 2008 at 2:16 PM would be named: APP27403D081021T141626C.DAT. Because the extract file is now effectively time-stamped, previously generated extract files will not be replaced. When the transmittal process detects the APP<ccddd>D<yymmdd>T<hhmmss>C.DAT file in the export\Fin_Sec directory, a copy is forwarded to OSPI and then the original APP<ccddd>D<yymmdd>T<hhmmss>C.DAT file in the export\Fin_Sec directory is renamed to APP<ccddd>D<yymmdd>T<hhmmss>C.TXT to avoid multiple transmittals of the same file. |
