Release Notes 3.4.3

Pay Period 7
March 28, 2008

The following items have been moved (migrated) to Production for use by Agencies beginning on March 28, 2008.

• IM137987 – Locality Adjustment not populated correctly

  ISSUE: Auto-generated 002 corrections to yearly pay adjustments did not update the locality on all appropriate tables in database.

  RESOLUTION: update locality field on commercial tables based on the correct gvt_job locality field.

  USER IMPACT: Reports such as HE0010 will correctly report salary and locality information.

• IM137489 – View all function not displaying data correctly

  ISSUE: When navigating to Benefits>Enroll in Benefits > Savings Plans and user accesses an employee with multiple plan types and coverage, the view all function would skew information off screen forcing user to scroll to the right to view data.

  RESOLUTION: Modification made to the BENEFIT_PARTIC.RowInit Component Record PeopleCode to correct page display.

  USER IMPACT: When users select the view all function, the page will display correctly, eliminating the need to scroll to the right to see the entire page.

• IM138911 – Mass/Mask Employee Awards

  ISSUE: Processing of awards via the Mass/Mask program has resulted in two issues with the data created, as well as an issue with the functional aspect of the run control page.

  Data Issues: 1) Proposed Effective Date has the wrong value. 2) “Pay in Separate Paycheck” checkbox is checked when a monetary award is chosen. HHS does not use PeopleSoft payroll so this checkbox is not used by EHRP for any data processing.

  Functional Issue: In run control page, the Award Type field controls the display of fields, Award Group and Earnings End Date, but does so in a manner that is confusing to users.

  RESOLUTION:

  Data Issues: 1) For the new award, Proposed Effective Date will now equal the PAR Effective Date. (Formerly it was the Proposed Effective Date of the prior row). 2) Do not check the “Pay in Separate Paycheck” checkbox. It is irrelevant.

  Functional Issue: Make the display/hiding of the Award Group and Earnings End Date fields occur immediately with a change to Award Type. Further, this field control was not happening for all values, it now does with corrections to logic for “Group Cash Award – Other”, “Individual Cash Award – NRB”, and “SES Performance Award”. Now it does.

  USER IMPACT: Of the issues resolved, the functional issue is going to impact the users the greatest. They will find creating the run control for the Award Mass/Mask less confusing.

• IM137489 – Access to WGI Status field

  ISSUE: When a WGI is inserted the row prior to the WGI will have the WGI Status set to “Created”, via online code and/or the Auto-WGI process, and the field is grayed out, which means users cannot edit the field. If the WGI gets cancelled, then the most current row has a WGI Status of “Created” and it can’t be changed by the users online. When the WGI status is “Created” it does not trigger the Auto-WGI process to create a WGI for deserving employees.

  RESOLUTION: Modification to online code that will un-gray the field in all circumstances, allowing users to correct if needed, especially in the scenarios described above.

  USER IMPACT: Users will now have access to change the WGI Status if it incorrectly shows a status of “Created” to the correct status, which will ensure new/future WGIs are inserted as expected.
