!!Assumptions tab
Planned changes may be entered as assumptions. These changes may be applied to a qualified set of budget seats for a specified time frame and can change FTE, scales/steps, wages, statistics, or premiums
%%warning Copy the BASE scenario before doing any assumptions.%%
Assumption can be one of three types:
|Planned|When you know that there are changes to be made, you should create ‘Planned’ assumption.
|What If|When you are attempting to ‘forecast’ a possible change, you should create a ‘What If’ assumption.
|Wage Step|If [UFSTEP] is run as part of the forecasting process, assumptions will be created and stored as ‘Wage Step’ assumptions by Personality.
The information data for the Assumptions tab can be found in the ([P2K_FC_ASSUMPTION_LOGS]) table.
;[Seq|ASSUMPTION_SEQUENCE]:This field will display the sequential order of the assumption.
;[Type|ASSUMPTION_TYPE]:This field will display the assumption type being defined.
;[Status|ASSUMPTION_STATUS]:This field indicates the status of the assumption.
;[Statement|STATEMENT_CODE]:Users may create global or general statements through the Define Assumption Statement (IFAS) form. This field allows you to link the statement to the assumption.
;[Start|START_DATE]:This field shows the date the assumption is to begin.
;:The information for this field will automatically fill through the IFAS ([P2K_FC_ASSUMPTIONS]) table. You may however, change this data either manually or by using the calendar icon provided.
;[End|END_DATE]:This field shows the date the assumption is to end.
;:The information for this field will automatically fill through the IFAS ([P2K_FC_ASSUMPTIONS]) table. You may however, change this data either manually or by using the calendar icon provided.
;[Description|DESCRIPTION]:This field provides a short description of the assumption.
;[Add Assumption Statement]:You may add an assumption through the Add New Assumption Statement button.
;:%%information Please refer to Assumption Statements for further information on this function.%%
;[Process Assumption]:The Process Assumption icon allows you to see the result of an assumption.
;:In order to perform this function, you must first highlight the appropriate assumption and then click on the Process Assumption button. When completed you will be informed as to how many records were processed.
;[Assumption Action|ASSUMPTION_ACTION]:An assumption is either added to the database (a new premium or statistics) or is updating existing information (a wage increase or FTE change). That action will be indicated in this field.
;[Assumption Formula|ASSUMPTION_FORMULA]:This field holds the formula for the assumption.
;:For example, if you requires a wage increase of 2.5%, the statement for is assumption is ‘Let the wage rate be equal the wage rate times 1.025’.
;:Therefore the formula for his assumption would be:
;:Wage_Rate = Wage_Rate * 1.025
;:%%information Ensure you place spaces before and after the ‘=’ in the formula line.%%
;[Assumption Where|ASSUMPTION_WHERE]:This field allows you to limit the formula to the statement in the ‘where’ clause.
;:For example, if you wishes to increase the wage rate of all in Unit of AMW by 2.5%, the statement would be, ‘Let the wage rate be equal the wage rate times 1.025 where the employee’s Unit is AMW’
;:Therefore, the formula for the assumption would be:
;:Wage_Rate = Wage_Rate * 1.025
;:The ‘Where’ clause would be:
;:Group_Code = ‘FULL-TIME’
%%information FORMULA RULES\\All CHAR or alphanumeric information must be entered with single quotes around them.
\\Standard formula format is A = B + C not B + C = A, as with UserCalcs.
\\Formula: WAGE_RATE = WAGE_RATE * 1.0 (update)
\\Formula: PREMIUM_CODE = 'UNIFORM'(add)
\\Where: UNIT = 'alphanumeric'
\\Where: WAGE_RATE > 12.25
\\Where: VACANT not filled positions
\\Where: NOT VACANT only filled positions%%
