 II. INSTALLATION
Step 1—Uninstalling Previous Versions of the Application

Before you install a newer version of the UI software it is recommended that

you uninstall the existing version of the software. Please follow the normal
process for uninstalling software on your computer. In addition, if you are
using SQL make sure to archive your previous SQL database, as this may
not happen automatically during the uninstall process.

Step 2—Download From www.ows.doleta.gov/dv/ or From CD-ROM

Before starting installation of the software, quit any other programs that may
be running. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive and open up the CD-
ROM directory, or download the software through the Internet from
http://www.ows.doleta.gov/dv/. The download is a zip file. Once the
download is complete, copy the contents of the zip file to your PC.

Click on the Setup.exe file. The InstallShield Wizard window will pop up.
Click on the “Next” button. Complete the Customer Information window as
necessary, and click on “Next.”

Minimum system requirements:

Operating System – Microsoft Office 97 or better

RAM - 128mb
Disk Space – 250 mb
Processor – 400 mhz Pentium III (or equivalent processor)
Suggested Screen Area - 800x600

 II. INSTALLATION
Step 3—Choose Destination Location

The Choose Destination Location window of the InstallShield Wizard Setup

allows the user to select the installation directory. The software defaults to
C:\ProgramFiles\UI Benefits Data Validation, as shown in the Destination
Folder text box. To install the software in a different folder, click on the
“Browse” function and navigate to the desired location. Make note of the
software directory that is selected if using a location other than the default
C:\Program Files. Click Next.

Even if you have completely uninstalled a previous version of the software,

it is possible that there are registry remnants which can be detected by the
InstallShield Wizard. Consequently, the following screen may appear. If
this screen does not appear, simply follow the ensuing prompts by clicking
“Next”, as the Setup Type window is not a required element for successful
installation. If the Setup Type screen does appear, select Typical and then
click Next.

4
 II. INSTALLATION
The Start Copying Files window will appear next. You will not have to
change any settings in this window, so click “Next”. When installation is
complete, the InstallShield Wizard Complete window will pop up. This
screen may prompt you to restart your computer. Click on Finish.

Step 4—Restarting computer

After completing the InstallShield Wizard installation setup, reboot your

computer before continuing any further. If the InstallShield Wizard
Complete window does not prompt you to restart your computer, simply
restart the computer as you would normally.

5
 II. INSTALLATION
Step 5—Select the Driver – For MS Access database

Step 5 is necessary to add a database, access the UIBenefitsdemo.mdb

database, change the default database, or install the application somewhere
besides the default location. The UI DV software must link to the
appropriate database in order to work properly.

Skip to Step 6 if you are using MS SQL Server.

Go to the Settings—Control Panel and select ODBC Data Sources {32bit} if

you are using Windows 98. If using Windows 2000 select Administrative
Tools and then Data Sources (ODBC). Double click.

6
 II. INSTALLATION
In the ODBC Data Source Administrator window, on the User DSN tab,
click “Add,” regardless of the data source name that is highlighted.

In the “Create New Data Source” window, select the Microsoft Access
Driver (.mdb) and click “Finish.”

7
 II. INSTALLATION
The ODBC Microsoft Access Setup window will pop up. Enter the data
source name, which is “UIDV”. Then go down to “Database” options and
click the “Select” button.

Note that all database setups in SQL or Access must have a data source
name beginning with the prefix “UIDV” and there should be no spaces in the
data source name. For example, users should enter “UIDVDemo” as the
data source name for the demo database included with the software
application. This ensures that these additional databases will appear in the
Switch Database function in the software. For more information about the
Switch Database function, see Section F of Chapter IV: Reference Guide.

8
 II. INSTALLATION
The Select Database window will pop up with your C: drive and file folders
(unless you have chosen to save the file elsewhere). Open the Program Files
folder and scroll down until you see the UI Benefits Data Validation folder.
When you open this folder up, the UIBenefits.mdb and
UIBenefitsdemo.mdb should appear in the left window. Follow this same
procedure to locate the database if the software was installed and saved to
another directory.

States should select the UIBenefits.mdb to conduct their state validation as

described in the Tutorial chapter of this user’s guide. The
UIBenefitsdemo.mdb includes demo data, to allow new users to view the
functionality of the software before building their validation files.

Highlight the applicable database and click “OK.”

Click “OK” on each of the open screens to close them.

9
 II. INSTALLATION
The following applies to users of Win 2000, XP and NT:

For some users of Win 2000, XP and NT, the data source may not be linked
to the correct database or to any databases, which prevents the application
from functioning.

To determine if the correct database is selected, select the Data Sources

(ODBC) in the Control Panel—Administrative Tools, User DSN tab. Check
that the UIDV is linked to the right database. To do this, double click on the
UIDV Data Source (ODBC) and check the path under the “database”
section. If the application was saved to the C:\Program Files folder then the
database should be in the C:\Program Files\UIDV\ subfolder. If the software
was saved to another location, ensure that the ODBC data source points to
this other folder and database.

Some users of Windows 2000, XP, and NT may also need to set up the
ODBC in the System DSN tab under Administrative Tools. This setup
procedure is identical to the procedure used for the User DSN tab.

If you are still experiencing difficulties accessing the software after checking
the data source, you should consult your system administrator.

10
 II. INSTALLATION
Step 6—Load the SQL Database – For MS SQL Database Users Only

Since the ACCESS database has a maximum capacity of 1.0 gigabytes,

states with very large data files may prefer to use the SQL version of the UI
DV software. The user functionality of the ACCESS and SQL databases is
identical.

A file named UIBenefits.sql is located in the UIDVB folder. This file

contains the SQL code required to create and load a SQL database version of
the UI Benefits Data Validation software.

The following steps are necessary to create the SQL version of the UIDV
Software:
1. Open the UIBenefits.sql file.
2. Modify the "CREATE DATABASE" part of the code to direct the
database to a valid folder on your network.
3. Once you have modified the file, use SQL Query Analyzer to run the
UIBenefits.sql script file.
Once the steps are complete the database is created.

After the SQL database is created, 33 text (.txt) files need to be imported
into the SQL database. Listed below are the names of the text files located in
the UIDVB folder. Each file name corresponds to the table name in the
database. Select each one and import it into the SQL database. Once all
files are imported, the SQL version will be ready to run.

 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Note that for Population 3, CWC Prior Quarters (subpopulations 3.38 and
3.39) and New Claims where the monetary was sent in the previous quarter
(subpopulations 3.40 - 3.45) the following exceptions apply:

In order to load and view CWC Claims filed in a prior quarter, as reported
on the ETA 586, the range of dates selected on the Sign In screen must be
extended to cover the prior quarters.

This also applies to states where the new claim was filed in the previous
quarter but the monetary was generated in the current quarter. It is
necessary to extend the range of dates selected on the Sign In screen to cover
the prior quarter as well.

States using the demo database to view the functionality of the software
should use the following period start and end dates on the Sign In screen:

Population 1: 10/1/00 - 12/31/00

Population 2: 7/1/01 - 5/31/02
Population 3: 4/1/02 - 6/30/02
Population 3a: 4/1/02 - 6/30/02
Population 4: 6/1/02 - 6/30/02

Step 3 -- Change Reporting Options

To change the reporting parameters after signing into the software, open the
Change Population menu and select either Change Population or Change
Reporting Period.

The Change Population function reopens the Sign In screen. Be sure to

close out of population-specific functions before changing the population.
Using the Change Population function, the user can select a different
population and report period start and end dates. Click on the Sign In button
to save the new selections.

In the Change Reporting Period screen, the user can change the report
period start and end dates for a given population by entering new dates and
clicking on the Save button.

 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
B. Importing Records

State data for the period and population being validated are imported into the
software, using the following steps.

Step 1—Create a File for Each Population

To view the record layout for each population, open the Import Data menu,
and select Source Table Record Layout. The record layouts are also in
Chapter V of this User’s Guide. If the file is not constructed in accordance
with the record layout, it will either not import into the software, or there
will be errors during the import process.

As indicated on the record layout, the extract file must be in an ASCII,

comma delimited .txt format. The software will also accept comma
separated (CSV) files if necessary. Fields must be in the order listed on the
record layout. All fields are mandatory fields unless specified as optional.
Blanks are acceptable in optional fields. Blank or null values are not valid
for mandatory fields and will result in the record being rejected.

Each population record layout has an extra field called “User Field” listed at
the end of the record layout. This field can be used for any additional data
element that the state wishes to include. However, states are not required to
use this field. States using CSV files may want to include a value in this
field to ensure that the entire record is properly imported.

The Module 3 reference on the record layout indicates the step where the
state-specific value for the field is documented in Module 3 of the UI
Benefits Data Validation Handbook. The Data Type/Format indicates the
generic values for text fields. These must be followed by a dash and the
state-specific value. For example, UI – 02 would be stored for UI program
type in a state where the code “02” represents a UI employer. If states do not
include the state-specific values they will not be able to conduct data
element validation.

In building the extract file, programmers may want to use the record layouts
in conjunction with Module 3, as well as with the population tables in
Appendix A of the benefits validation handbook, to identify the appropriate
data fields in the state database. The extract file should be run at the end of
the report period, at the same time that the state runs the UI benefits report
being validated.

23
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE

Chapter VI of this User’s Guide contains an example of a record for each

subpopulation.

Step 2—Load Extract Data

Once the data are formatted according to the record layouts, open the
Import Data menu and select Import From Extract File. Select the file to
be imported using the Select File box. If the extract file is saved in CSV
format, you may need to type *.csv in the Select File box and then press
Enter for the file to appear. Click Open to import the extract file.

Press Yes to continue the loading process.

The Import File box includes counters for both the number of records
imported successfully and the number of records with errors. The Import
File box also includes a cancel button to stop the import process.

To view the imported file open the Import Data menu and select View
Source Table. This is a read only screen, however the columns are sortable
to facilitate review of the imported records.

It may take a while to import the data, depending on the size of the file. The
following table shows the length of time that states using the default
software installation creating Access (.mdb) files (not SQL) can expect for
the import of files for Weeks Claimed (Benefits Population 1) and Payments
(Benefits Population 4). The import process for these files was tested on
both a Pentium IV and a Pentium III computer. Import times will likely be
similar whether the file is loaded from a PC or a network location.

Time to Import Large Files

UI Population No. of Records Pentium IV Pentium III
Imported Import Time Import Time
Benefits Pop. 1 800,000 1.25 hrs 1.50 hrs
Weeks Claimed 1,500,000 2.00 hrs 2.25 hrs

Benefits Pop. 4 800,000 1.50 hrs 1.75 hrs
Payments 1,500,000 2.50 hrs 2.75 hrs
2,000,000 4.25 hrs 4.50 hrs
24
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
The Pentium IV and Pentium III computers had the following specifications.

Pentium IV Pentium III

1.8 ghz processor 866 mhz processor
256 meg RAM 256 meg RAM
40 gig HD 10 gig HD
512 meg virtual memory 512 meg virtual memory

These computers were dedicated specifically to testing the import times of

UI records (i.e. no other functions were being carried out on these machines
while import tests were being conducted). Prior to each import, the database
was compacted and unnecessary files were deleted/removed from the system
(i.e. emptying recycling bin, running “disk clean up” function in Windows,
etc.) to maximize system efficiency and free up hard disk space. It is also
important to close all other programs prior to import to allow optimal
memory for importing large files.
Import times contained in the table reflect the total time required for
completion of the import. However, use of the various functions and
validation techniques of the software can take anywhere from several
seconds to nearly 30 minutes depending on the size of the import file. For
example, after the import has been successfully completed, it may take up to
20 minutes for the report validation summary to be generated for a 2.0
million record data set.
The import times indicated depend not only upon system capabilities, but
also on the number and density of the records. The Microsoft Access
database has a capacity of 1.0 gigabytes; thus, the number of records
imported is contingent upon the amount of data and number of completed
fields in each record. “Overflow” errors are an indication that the Access
database has reached maximum capacity and will present as either Windows
errors or as import errors within the UI software. “Overflow” errors will be
written to the importerror.txt file indicating that the “database has reached
maximum size.”
States with very large data files may use the SQL database version of the UI
benefits software. Performance will vary for states using the SQL version
based on server speed and the extent of other users.

25
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Step 3—Review Error Reports

When the extract files are loaded, the software reads each record to ensure
that all fields are valid based on the record layout and the specifications in
Appendix A of the benefits data validation handbook. Duplicate records and
any records with invalid data or missing data in mandatory fields are
rejected. An error report is produced after each import which lists the
records rejected during import.

The error reports are automatically saved to the UIDV benefits folder and
are titled importerror.txt. To save each error report, the importerror.txt file
should be renamed so that it is not overwritten by subsequent error reports.

There are generally two types of errors generated by the application – import
errors and assignment errors. Import errors are caused by an incorrect
number of columns compared to the record layout (object required errors, as
shown in the sample error report) and incorrect formatting (data mismatch
errors).

Sample Error Report

Data type mismatch errors are produced when the records do not contain the
data expected for a particular population. One example is when field values
are switched, specifically if text values are placed in a number field.

Another common error message is “Primary reasons for records not being
assigned are incorrect date or other field format or the field is missing.” This
message will appear when records are accepted by the software but cannot
be assigned to subpopulations because they do not conform to the

26
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
assignment rules for that population. That is, they are in the Source Table
but not the Report Validation table. One possible cause is that the report
quarter and/or due date entered on the Sign In screen are not consistent with
the data in the file. State users should review the dates and other field
formats to determine the exact cause of the error.

After reviewing any error reports that are generated, ADP staff should
determine if the extracts must be regenerated or reformatted and reloaded. If
a very small number of records are rejected, it may not be necessary to re-
import the file.

27
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Step 4—View Duplicates Report

This step allows the user to view the duplicate records identified and
rejected by the software. There is no data entry required on this report, it is
used for analytical purposes only.

Click on the Report Validation menu and select View Duplicates Report.

This opens a report which displays all of the duplicate records for the
population, including the relevant data elements that are used to determine
duplicates for the population. All records with duplicate data are rejected,
following the specifications in the duplicate detection criteria in the benefits
data validation handbook. The duplicate report shows the rejected records,
as shown in the sample screen print below.

Users may review the duplicate detection report to determine which records
should be removed from the import file, before reimporting the file. If a
small number of duplicates are rejected, states may choose not to reimport
the file.

Step 5—Repeat Same Process for All Populations

Follow steps 1 through 4 in this section to import the data for all of the
populations.

28
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
C. Report Validation

Step 1—Enter Reported Counts

Click on the Report Validation menu and select Enter Reported Counts.

This opens a data entry screen for entering the reported count figures. The
first column, Report/Cell, displays the applicable report and cell numbers
from the UI Required Reports. The second column, Description, provides a
text description of each report cell. In the third column, Count, the validator
data enters the cell counts from the applicable report cells.

In the Count column, enter all of the reported counts from the report being
validated.

Populations 4, 12, 13, and 14 also have dollar amounts on the required
reports. Select the second tab, Dollars, to enter the dollar amounts in the
Amount$ column.

Populations 4, 5, 8, and 9 also have time lapse counts on the required

reports. Select the third tab, Time Lapse, to enter the time lapse totals in the
Count column.

Enter counts

29
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Step 2—View Report Validation Summary

This step allows the user to view the report validation summary. There is no
data entry required, this is a read-only function.

Click on the Report Validation menu and select View Report Validation
Summary.

This function displays a report that calculates the difference between the
validation values and the reported values. There is a 1% pass/fail tolerance
for time lapse measures on populations 4, 5, 8 and 9. All other report items
have a 2% tolerance.

Note that if the validation value is 0 for a given report item, then a reported
value of 1 is given a “Count % Difference” on the RV summary of “Diff”
and is labeled “Pass.” If the validation value is 2 or higher then the “Count
% Difference” is “Diff” and it is labeled “Fail.”

30
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Step 3 – Report Validation Comments Entry

This step allows the user to enter comments pertaining to particular

populations to explain discrepancies between the reported values and the
validation values. These explanations could include factors relating to the
state system or factors relating to the software.

For example, the software does not have specific subpopulations for
reporting UCFE and UCX multiclaimant appeals. If the state has reported
any UCFE or UCX multiclaimant appeals on its federal report, the reported
value will not match the validation value. The state can use the comments
field to explain this discrepancy and to indicate the number of UCFE and/or
UCX appeals reported.

Click on the Report Validation menu and select Report Validation

Comments Entry.

Select the appropriate population from the drop down list. Type your
comments in the notes field and then click on Update.

31
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
The comments will appear at the bottom of the Report Validation Summary.

32
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
In accordance with national office instructions, states are required to submit
text files of their report validation summaries and summary/analytical
reports to the national office. To generate the text files for the report
validation summaries, select the Export Validation Summary function under
the Report Validation menu. Once selected, the software will indicate that
the file has been exported by displaying the message “Done.”

The reports are automatically saved to the C:\Program Files\UIBenefits Data

Validation\RV Summary Extract folder. The Export function creates the
text file for the population in which the user is working. The reports are
titled RVSummary1, RVSummary2, RVSummary3, etc. Once the user has
completed validation, there will be a total of 14 report validation summary
text files in the RV Summary Extract folder. These 14 files should be
emailed to the national office. See UIPL 10-03 for a timeline for submitting
text files of the report validation and summary and analytical reports to the
UIS National Office.

States who have already submitted Excel files to the national office are not
required to resubmit the text files.

33
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Step 4—View Report Validation Table

This step allows the user to view the validation subpopulations. There is no
data entry required, it is used for analytical purposes only.

Click on the Report Validation menu and select View Report Validation
Table.

This opens a window displaying a summary of each validation

subpopulation and the total number of records and dollar amounts, where
applicable, for each subpopulation.

Double click on the arrow in the far left column of each subpopulation to
view the detailed records in that subpopulation.

Double click to view detailed records in subpopulation 4.1

To increase the width of the columns, go to the intersection of the heading

and click the mouse button and drag to desired width.

35
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Step 5—View Time Lapse

This step applies only to populations that have time lapse counts (4, 5, 8, and
9).

This step allows the user to view the time lapse calculations. There is no data
entry required, it is used for analytical purposes only.

Click on the Report Validation menu and select View Time Lapse.

This opens a window which displays all of the records for the population,
the SSN and other unique identifier, the date fields that are used to calculate
the time lapse, and then the time lapse.

36
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
D. Data Element Validation

Step 1—Validate Sampled Cases

Click on the Data Element Validation menu and select Edit Worksheets.

This opens a window that displays a summary of all the samples for the
particular population. Double click on the sample row to view the detailed
records chosen for that sample.

Click on arrow to open worksheet for each sample

37
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
This will open up the validation worksheet for the sample selected. The
validation worksheet includes all of the data elements to be validated
following the rules specified in Module 3 of the UI benefits validation
handbook.

Each column contains a particular data element to be validated. The step

number refers to the step in the validation handbook. Follow the rules for
this step, as specified in Module 3, by checking all necessary screens and
other documentation to determine if this data element is valid.

If the data element passes all of the rules listed in Module 3 for the given
step, go to the Pass/Fail column and click on “0” for pass. If the data
element fails one or more of the rules for the given step, click on “1” in the
Pass/Fail column.

Enter “0” for Pass or “1” for Fail

38
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
Follow this same series of steps for each observation in the sample. At any
time, click on “Refresh Counts” – the software will calculate the total
errors for all of the sampled cases at the bottom of the sample detail screen.

Next, go back to the Summary of Samples Taken tab and follow the same
procedure for any remaining samples for the population.

The sample cases for each population are stored in the database. It may be
helpful to print the sample SSNs to assist in gathering the supporting
documentation. To open the database go to the Tables tab. There is a set of
tables each beginning with the prefix ’Sample’ and then a number (not to be
confused with ’Samp’). These hold the sampled cases for each population.
For instance, if you want to see the sampled transactions for Population 4
you would look for ’Sample4’. You can export these files in several different
formats. Please note that these files can be manipulated, so it is very
important that the data are not edited or changed in any way, to avoid any
problems with the samples.

 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
To print the worksheets for individual records, click on the Data Element
Validation menu, select Edit Worksheets, and open up the sample that
includes the records that you want to print. Put your curser to the left of the
Seq field for the record you want to print. Double click on the record to
format the record for printing. Once the record is formatted, click the printer
icon at the top left of the screen to begin printing.

To print all of the worksheets for a particular population, click on the Data
Element Validation menu and select Print Worksheets. All sampled
records for the population will be formatted for printing. Once formatted,
click the printer icon at the top left of the screen to begin printing.

The sampled records for the population will print sequentially by the sample
groups. For example, if there are 50 cases in the first sampled group for
Population 1, the first cases to print will be labeled with seq number 1 – 50.
If there are 10 cases in the second sampled group, they will be labeled seq
no. 1 – 10, and will follow immediately after the first 50 cases.

Step 2 – View Summary/Analytical Report

Click on the Data Element Validation menu and select

Summary/Analytical Report, and the Print Summary #1 sidebar.

This function displays a summary report that is generated after the sample
worksheets have been completed. There is no data entry required, this
screen is used for analytical purposes only.

The report displays the total number of errors for each sampled group. Error
rates are calculated for the population as a whole and for each type of error,
including time lapse. Module 2 of the benefits data validation handbook
includes more information on the summary/analytical reports.

41
 IV. REFERENCE GUIDE
As discussed in the Report Validation section of this tutorial, states are
required to submit text files for all of their report validation summaries and
summary/analytical reports to the national office. To generate the text files
for the summary and analytical reports, select Export Summary #1 from the
Data Element Validation menu. Once selected, the software will indicate
that the file has been exported by displaying the message “Done.”

The reports are automatically saved to the C:\Program Files\UIBenefits Data

Validation\Summary Analytical Extract folder. The Export function creates
the text file for the population in which the user is working. The reports are
titled SummaryAnalytical1, SummaryAnalytical2, SummaryAnalytical3,
etc. Once the user has completed validation, there will be a total of 14
summary and analytical report text files in the Summary Analytical Extract
folder. These 14 files should be emailed to the national office. See UIPL
10-03 for a timeline for submitting text files of the report validation and
summary and analytical reports to the UIS National Office.
