Import Support Information - PBSTIS

The Position Budgeting (PB) Import Support Information (PBSTIS) page is used to activate several pre-defined special processing functions within the PB system. Options can be custom-programmed for this page to perform client-specific functions.

Model: Enter the Model. Model IDs are defined in the Position Budgeting Setup (PBSTRQ) page.
Data ID: Enter the Data ID (run option) for the entries. Several pre-defined options exist.
Description: Enter a description for the entered Data ID. If multiple pages are entered for the same Data ID, then the description must be the same for each page. Otherwise, the entries will not sort correctly.
Data Element Screen (Page): The Data Element Screen field is used to specify the page to be used as the selection criteria page.The available options are California Retirement Information, Employee Information, PB Employee Benefits, PB Employee Information, and PY Employee Information.
Data Element Attribute: The Data Element Attribute field is used in conjunction with the Data Element Screen field to indicate the page and attribute that will be used as the selection criteria for the entries on Import Support Information page for each Data ID. The field is validated to only accept fields that exist on the entered data element page selected.
Code 2 Attribute: The Code 2 Attribute field is used in conjunction with the Data Element Screen field to indicate the page and attribute that will be used as the selection criteria for the entries on PB Import Support Information page for each Data ID. The field is validated to only accept fields that exist on the entered data element page selected.
Data ID Help Line: This field is used to assist the user in entering the appropriate data into each field. For pre-defined options, the Data ID Help Line will automatically be populated when the cursor leaves the Data ID field.
Data Element: The Data Element field stores the actual selection criteria value that will be used to indicate which entry applies to an employee for each Model/Data ID combination.

Example
Data Element Screen: PB Employee Benefits
Data Element Attribute: MISC1
Data Element: EO
The above entry would apply to any employee with a Misc 1 value of "EO" on the PB Benefit Information (PBTBBE) page (the PB page that stores all employee benefits).

Code 0 – Code 6: The Code fields (0 – 6) have specific meaning based on which option is entered in the Data ID field. See the Data ID Help Line for a description of what should be entered in each misc field. Some options do not use all of the misc fields.

Copy Codes

The Copy Codes tool is specific to the current record. A pop-up window appears where the user will have to select the Model and the Copy Code. The Copy Code tool has two options: To copy all codes for the selected model or to copy for the displayed Data ID.  When the user selects the first option, all the Import Support Information records of the current model will be copied to the new selected model.  For the second option, the Import Support Information record of the current model having the current Data ID will be copied to the selected model.
