Important Dates in CPS History

Important Dates in CPS History		Comments
September 2009	Several Furlough Exchange Programs went into effect to allow faculty who met certain conditions to "exchange" furlough reductions for hours spent doing research or other work funded by extramural, gift, or clinical funds.  The program was retroactive to July 2009 and ended at the end of June 2010.	"Furlough exchange" distributions with DOS codes FEP, CEP, or GEP are set up to represent non-general funded earnings, hours, and FTE.  The general-funded FTE, earnings, and hours are supposed to be reduced by the amount of the Furlough Exchange FTE, earnings, and hours.
September 2009	Mandatory furlough/salary reduction program takes effect systemwide.	Reduction distributions with DOS code SRB are set up to represent reduced earnings, hours, and FTE.  Employees still receive UCRP service credit and HAPC based on unreduced salary.
June 2009	Campuses begin submitting earnings files which includes leave hours used.	DOS code "LV" indicates a record which includes vacation, sick, and other leave hours accrued or used.  If DOS code "LV" is not excluded from queries, the hours and FTE must be subtracted from the total to accurately represent hours worked.
April 2009	Continuing Education of the Bar now paid by UCLA campus accounts rather than systemwide accounts	CEB employees are initially paid from systemwide funds; later the earnings are adjusted and local accounts are substituted.

September 2006	Migration of CPS from the VM Operating system to the MVS system was completed.
June 2006	Los Alamos (LANL) is no longer covered by UC retirement and benefits programs effective June 2006, so the lab snapshot for June 2006 contains no LANL (campus 23) employees)
October 2005	Postdoctoral Fellows (title code 3253) and "Postdoc-Paid Directs" (title code 3254) are included even if they do not have an assigned or derived BELI of "P" and have no appointment or distribution information.	SF has its own benefits plans for these postdocs so they do not assign them a BELI of "P".  They can be identified by  Title_Code_Primary_Appt_PPS equals '3253' or '3254'.

Postdocs in title code 3252 are considered employees and are eligible for employee benefit plans.
