Human Resources

HRUTZZ01, Salary Table Records - The following issues have been resolved:

• In Trial Mode, no records are inserted into the hr_slrytble_mstr table.

• In Live Mode, if a detail record fails, the system does not insert a master record even if the master record is good.

• A leading zero is only added to numeric steps 0-9 including fraction values. For instance, "0" = "00" and "2.3" = "02.3". A step with a character in it or a value of 10 or more is not modified.

• The system generates a salary index value and compares that value to the value in the data file. If there is a mismatch, an error is displayed and the record fails.

BPF-51077

Human Resources

HRUTZZ01 - Salary Definitions - The process identifies the Index Code based on a match between the SCHEDULE in the data input file and the HRTBSC Schedule. Using the data in the data input file, an Index Key is created and then compared to the INDX_KEY in the data file. The two are compared and if they match, the data input record is valid. If there is a mismatch, the record fails and an error appears in the tail sheet.
