    Problem definition
    • Company paid union health and welfare benefits
    • Over 100 different funds based on union local
    • Benefit is based on different criteria
    • Days worked in a work-week
    • Hours worked in a work-week
    • Trips completed in a work-work
    • Gregorian month

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Days worked scenario
    • Multiple timecards in a day, must count as one
    • Used working storage/arrays to keep track of date
    earned
    • Timecard formulas were modified to track the number of
    days
    • Employer liability formulas were modified to calculate
    the actual liability

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Working storage
    • Internal cache memory that is global to the payroll
    process
    • Values stored by one formula can be referenced in
    subsequent formulas
    • There are four working storage area call methods:
    • WSA_EXISTS
    • WSA_DELETE
    • WSA_SET
    • WSA_GET

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Arrays
    • Variables that can hold dates, numbers or text
    • Similar to PL/SQL index-by tables
    • Methods are provided to get the first and last indexes
    and to get the next or prior index given an index

    J=J+1
    Date_Earned[J] = This_Date_Earned

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Looping

    • WHILE-loop type is supported


    • Allows to go through a set of values (users-defined tables, date
    tracked values)

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Putting it all together
    • Since the names are global, had to add assignment ID to the
    WSA name

    Date_Earned_Name = 'HWP_Date_Earned' + '*' + TO_CHAR(Assg_ID)

    • Check for existence of the WSA variable:

    This_Date_Earned = TO_CHAR(Earned_Date)

    IF (WSA_EXISTS(Date_Earned_Name,'TEXT_NUMBER'))
    THEN YRC_Date_Earned = WSA_GET(Date_Earned_Name,EMPTY_TEXT_NUMBER)
    ELSE
    YRC_Date_Earned[1] = This_Date_Earned

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Putting it all together
    • Loop through the array to see if current date exists:

    i=1
    Found = 'NO'
    WHILE (YRC_Date_Earned.EXISTS(i)) LOOP
    (
    IF YRC_Date_Earned[i] = This_Date_Earned THEN Found = 'YES'
    i=i+1
    )
    IF Found = 'NO' THEN YRC_Date_Earned[i] = This_Date_Earned

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Putting it all together
    • Store array back into working storage

    WSA_SET(Date_Earned_Name,YRC_Date_Earned)

    April 2-6, 2017 in Las Vegas, NV USA #C17LV


    Summary
    • Working storage is a good way to pass data between
    formulas and assignments
    • Arrays can simplify the storing of local variables
    • Looping provides an efficient means to traverse through
    arrays of data
    • Knowledge of the capabilities of fast formulas can turn
    gaps into fits
