How ODJFS calculates Weeks for Reporting 

The job calendars Job Calendars for employees which correspond to the calendar date range of the quarter are entered into blank working calendars. Blank working calendars are used internally by the system and cannot be viewed. The Attendance transaction types AT or AB for the same date range are marked on working calendars appropriately for each day. The calendars are "modified" inside the program to reflect the days from the calendars plus days from Attendance. So you can think of Attendance records as modifying the calendars on a per employee (or job) basis.

After the working calendars are built, the system counts the weeks for the quarter and that is the total unadjusted qualifying weeks.  A qualifying week is any week in which an employee has worked at least part of a day. For ODJFS purposes, a week is counted if the Saturday following it falls within the reporting quarter. The maximum number of weeks for any quarter is the number of Saturdays contained within it. This maximum may vary for each quarter of the year.

How system calculates weeks:

ODJFS Report looks at the Calendar Start Date located in Compensations under Historical Context.

A Calendar Stop Date needs to be entered once the employee is no longer employed.

ODJFS Report does NOT look at the Archive status of an employee.

It The Quarter date range is calculated by:

  • To find the Start date, they system starts with the quarter date range

...

  • and finds the first

...

  • Saturday of the quarter

...

  • .  The Start date is then set to the preceding Sunday of the first

...

  • Saturday of the month.
  • To find the

...

  • Stop date,

...

  • the system uses the last

...

  • Saturday of the month of the stop date of the quarter.

Example 1st Example:

  • 1st Quarter 2019

...

  • 01/01/2019 - 03/31/19

...

  • .  The system will use the date range of 12/30/2019 - 03/30/19 to

...

  • locate the count of weeks.

Once it has the date range then it find the odjfs ODJFS days from calendars and , attendance, and all docks. It loops through them all   The system then goes through all entries and adds the week of the year to a list checking for duplicates, so we don't count the weeks .  This ensures no two weeks are counted twice. Then it the system adds any ODJFS Weeks adjustment journals. That is how it gets the total.The system then locates any adjustment transactions from CORE/ADJUSTMENT (ODJFS Weeks) for the quarter for ODJFS. Core>Adjustments>ODJFS Weeks to arrive at the final total.  Adjustment transactions entered can be considered manual adjustments to what the system would calculate. Note that "manual adjustment" transactions are picked up based on the reporting quarter. Any adjustment Adjustment dated within the quarter will be applied. The manual adjustment records are a bit different than attendance day entries because they are not for specific weeks. In this case, you are just adjusting the total qualifying weeks for the quarter. The adjustments Adjustments (if any) are added to or subtracted from the total unadjusted qualifying weeks. These are the total qualifying weeks that will appear on ODJFS Report.

Items to Consider:

  • ODJFS Report does not look at the Archive status of an employee.  Archived employees will still be reported.
  • ODJFS Report looks at the Compensation>Historical Context>Calendar Start Date and Calendar Stop Date to determine week counts.
  • A Calendar Stop Date should to be entered once the employee is no longer employed.
  • If an employee's Compensation>Compensation Start Date and Compensation Stop Date fall within the quarter being reported, the employee will be included.  

If there was a make up day for the calamity day the employee would get credit at that time.
