Running the Missing From CAT Report

Overview

This report is intended to identify employees that exist in Job Data, but are missing in the Compensation Administration Tool (CAT).

Process Considerations:

  • Reasons an employee may be missing in the CAT may include:
    • Hired after the Initialization Report (IR) was run
    • Hired before the first of the next Fiscal Year
    • The employee record was excluded while working in the Initialization Report
    • The employee record was excluded while working in the Institutional Planning Spreadsheet (IPS)
  • This report should be run regularly, after the IPS is loaded into the CAT
