Step Increment Simulation Page

RUNCTL_FPA010

Start the Advancement Simulation SQR process (FPA010).

Delete Simulation Data Page

PRCSRUNCNTL

Clear the advancement simulations.

Reset Date and Adv Flag (reset date and advancement flags) Page

PRCSRUNCNTL

Reset the date and advancement flags created by your simulations.

Career Simulation Report Page

RUNCTL_FPACRYSTAL3

Run the Career Simulation Report (FPA_CARB) that lists the simulated career data after reclassification or simulation of step increment.

Run the Advancement Simulation SQR process (FPA010) to simulate future automatic step increments.

You must first calculate the advancement dates and select the period to be examined. Otherwise, the system simulates advancement for all dates that are available in the database. You can simulate advancement for a corps or an employee. The employee's status and civil service position must authorize advancement. Simulations are stored on the Career 2 table.

The Advancement Simulation process creates a list of employees and their career statuses after advancement simulation in the FPA010.LIS file. Run the Career Simulation Report to print a list of simulated career data.
