This report is created automatically when the Fiscal Year End has been closed (June Posting Period is closed) and will be found in the File Archive/YYYY Fiscal Year Reports. If trying to process the report at a later time if any contracts were added whose date range overlaps the 'as of' date, the report would be different than what was processed at Fiscal Year End. It also checks the current position job status for 'Active', so if any Positions are no longer active, it would change the report results and also pay accounts that were changed would affect the report as well. The 'as of' date is used primarily to get the state of the Compensations as they were at that date, but it does not guarantee an identical report. The report looks at when the USAGE or ACCUM was entered (Date Applied). A Leave Activity Report can be run to see when the leave was entered:

In order for an employee's job to appear in the Benefit Obligation By Account report there must be an active pay account assigned to the same position that has the eligibility flag set to 'Y'. If the program can not find a pay account for the Position, the employee is omitted from the report.
