March 2006 Release

• ARS Data Entry Screen Zone Code to CAPS
• ARS Scan Screen Bar Code Correction
• CARS File Layout Correction
• CIPSEA Short File
• Edits
• Edit 48 Comment 00
• Edit 99 Large Imputation Check
• Edit 91 Employment
• K Indicator
• MWR Web
• Wage Record Predecessor/Successor Screen Fix
• NY CIPSEA EQUI Master Record Problem

4
ARS Data Entry Screen

• The ARCS Data Entry Screen now converts lowercase
  zone codes to CAPS when the OK button is
  selected.
• Eliminates conflicts with other systems when
  lowercase zone codes are exported from WIN-202.

5
ARS Scan Data Entry Screen Bar Code Correction

• The ARCS Scan Data Entry Screen has been modified
  to accept forms with 12-digit barcodes from the
  CARS print facility.

6
CARS File Layout Correction

• The CARS output file has been corrected so that
  Null fields will be output as blanks instead of
  ?.
• Response codes will be incremented by 1 for each
  mailing and then added to the CARS output file.
• The first mailing contains Response Code 01.
  Carryover records will have their response codes
  set to 98.

7
CIPSEA Short File

• This new shorter format file is easier to use and
  limits records to the analysts specifications.
• Select CIPSEA Short File from the Reports Menu
  and enter the desired parameters.

8
Edit 48 Comment Code 00

• Comment Code 00 is now a valid code and will not
  be reassigned to a ? with Edit 48 (Invalid
  Comment Code).
• This corrects the programming that was removing
  the comment code 00 when the edit was run

9
Edit 99 Large Imputation Check

• Edit 99 (Questionable Large Imputation) allows
  analysts to identify records being imputed with
  large employment in which an establishment may
  have actually sold or gone out-of-business.
  Editors do not need to review the estimate
  queries any more.

10
Employment Edit Correction

• Due to an error in the employment edit, too many
  records were flagging. The correction should
  reduce the number of employment flags for edits
  89, 90, 91, 136, 137 138 (Employment Change
  Greatly Exceeds Test Parameters).

11
K Indicator

• Allows BLS State analysts to review estimations
  made outside of normal procedures for natural
  disasters.
• Modifies edits 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 128 to
  add K as a valid value for employment and wage
  indicators.

12
MWR Web

• MWR Web tests continue

13
Wage Record Predecessor/ Successor Screen Fix

• A fix was made to the WR Pred/Succ screen to
  improve system performance after leaving the
  screen.

14
CIPSEA EQUI Master Record Problem

• CIPSEA calculated employment for some master
  records did not equal the sum of subunits. The
  Data Sharing file has been corrected for this
  release.

15
BONUS

• No Dump and Reload for the March Release!!

Create Link
When the button is clicked, ask the question if
the link is a pred or succ and create link
18
New Pred/Succ Screen (cont.)
Additional P/S Screen Notes Physical Address is
the default address choice System assign posted
date and sourcewr when actual p/s is created
from the potential screen Issue warning if the
user tries to add a p/s that already
exists Highlight/double click an actual p/s to
update transfer date or source message Do you
want to update or delete? Scroll box of p/s in
upper corner sorted by posted date Scroll box
of p/s in upper right corner will also appear on
the admin tab where the P/S fields are
currently. Once a P/S link is made, it will
become active in the upper right corner P/S
scroll box and the user will be able to navigate
to that account. Other Issues Generate a Wage
Record Summary report that will show more detail
than what is displayed on the screen. Show codes
on bottom of the address and admin tabs. We need
more explanation of the scoring.
