Understanding SUI Workfile Generation

Before you can produce state unemployment insurance (SUI) reports and generate the magnetic media for government reporting, you use the Prepare Data for SUI Reporting program (R078300) to generate the SUI Magnetic Media Workfile table (F07880). When you generate the workfile, the system uses the information in the Tax History table (F06136) to compile the most current SUI information for all states. You use a processing option to specify the calendar quarter for which you want to generate the workfile.

After you generate the workfile, you can then produce reports and magnetic media files for each state to which you are required to report.
