HD0000000595980 - Routine PRSAPPU problem PARTICIPATING TEST SITES: ========================= VA Nebraska Western Iowa HCS VA Black Hills HCS Louisville VAMC Remedy Overview: ================ 1. HD0000000595980 - Routine PRSAPPU problem Problem: -------- User found that the routine PRSAPPU was only coded to calculate pay periods correctly through the 12-27 pay period. If a year 2013 pay period date was entered, the pay period did not roll over to 13-1. It would remain at year 12 and continue to increase by one (i.e. 12-28, 12-29, 12-30, etc). Resolution: ----------- Modified routine PRSAPPU to extend pay period calculation past the year 2012.
