System Description
The Title Code System has two primary purposes: serving as the official repository of
policies related to job classifications at the University, and processing range
adjustments for staff, shift differential and academic rates. The system includes title
codes for both academic and non-academic titles. These two groups of title codes are
handled quite differently as far as the data that is carried, and the processes. For this
reason, the system can be thought of as four systems:
1. official repository of data pertaining to non-academic title codes (including Tier 1
titles (Professional Support Staff, or PSS) and Tier 2 titles (Management and Senior
Professionals (MSP) and Senior Management (SMG), defined as titles within Tier 2
in the range 0001 – 0199, formerly referred to as the Executive Program));
2. official repository of data pertaining to academic title codes;
3. processing for academic range adjustments; and
4. processing for non-academic base rates and shift differential range adjustments.
The last of these four functions, non-academic base rates and shift differential range
adjustment processing, is largely performed by the Title Code Range system (TCR), a
PC-based system that interfaces with the mainframe Title Code System. This document
describes the mainframe side of these interfaces, but does not cover information
regarding the TCR range adjustment system.
The Title Code System (TCS) database is a DB2 database consisting of the following
base tables:

Throughout the month users may make online changes to the TCS DB2 base tables via
CICS screens. In general, the non-academic users and academic users work
completely independently. Also, while the online system is up and available throughout
the month, it is likely that the users will concentrate their updates within one week
(although it may not be the same week for non-academic and academic users). The
users will request audit reports for the period during which they are performing online
updates, to enable them to check their work. The users may refer to the online update
process as "monthly maintenance".
Once monthly maintenance is complete for both academic and non-academic users,
month-end processing may proceed. This processing includes production of various
reports and the following interface files:
1. a tape for TPF&C
2. a Focus file for Corporate Personnel System
3. transactions for the Payroll/Personnel System (PPS) Title Code Table (TCT)

General Information
There may be months where no online activity occurs. In this case, month-end
processing does not need to be run. Also, the interface to the PPS Title Code Table
(TCT) may occur more frequently than monthly, and is often run after a range
adjustment has completed.
Specific pay rates are carried within the Title Code System for non-academic base
rates, Shift Differential rates, and Academic rates. Periodically, the University increases
these rates, both within the Title Code System, and in each of the campus
Payroll/Personnel Systems, to increase employee's pay (if they are working in one of
the titles selected for inclusion in the range adjustment). These mass increases (or
possibly decreases) of rates are called "range adjustments".
The academic range adjustment process is handled entirely by the mainframe system.
The range adjustment process starts with the academic users making online entries,
and requesting reports. Once the range adjustment is finalized, the Final Academic
Range Adjustment job is run (TCS32F), and PPS range adjustment transactions are
produced. Once the processes are reviewed and approved, the campuses are notified
that the PPS range adjustment transactions are available for campuses to retrieve using
ftp.
The non-academic base rates and shift differential range adjustment processes are
performed by a combination of the mainframe TCS system and the TCR, a PC-based
system. Initially, extracts from the mainframe TCS DB2 database are created and
written to a server. The PC-based system copies these extract files and calculates new
rates based on the old rates in the extract files plus online input from the users. Once
finalized, these new rates are put on the server by the TCR system, and the mainframe
job copies these files, updates the TCS DB2 database with the new, range adjusted
rates, generates PPS range adjustment transactions, and produces reports. The
TCSSAUP job performs these functions for non-academic base rates, and the
TCSDFUP job performs these functions for shift differential rates.

Interfaces
Files Sent FROM the TCS System
The following files are sent out to other systems FROM the TCS system:
1. Corporate Personnel System (FCP) Interface
On a monthly basis, a Focus database is created and copied to tape for use by the
Corporate Personnel System, running on the VM/CMS system at UCOP (UCCVMA
machine).
2. TPF&C tape
On a monthly basis, a tape is created and sent to TPF&C, the University Actuaries.
This file contains only the Personnel Program (with academic titles split into two
categories rather than one) and Title code.
3. Payroll/Personnel Title Code Table Interface
Transactions are generated on a regular basis (usually monthly) for the Title Code
Table (TCT) within the local Payroll/Personnel System (PPS) at each campus.
Unlike the interfaces to the other systems, the TCT transactions must represent
changes made for the period since the last interface to TCT. To accomplish this,
extract files are created on a regular basis, and a comparison is made between the
current set of extract files and the previous set of extract files. When differences
between the extract files exist, TCT transactions are generated to delete, change or
add data in TCT.
4. Payroll/Personnel Range Adjustment Transactions (also called Payscale Table)
The range adjustment processes within TCS are designed both to update the TCS
DB2 database with the range adjusted rates, and to produce transactions for each of
the campus Payroll/Personnel systems to range adjust employees' pay rates. There
are three range adjustment processes that generate PPS range transactions:
 Academic range adjustments
 Non-academic base rates range adjustments (also referred to as "staff range
adjustment" in this document)
 Shift Differential rates range adjustments
The transactions generated by each of these three types of range adjustments are
identical in format.

General Information
5. Range Adjustment Extract Files
Much of the processing for the staff and shift differential range adjustments is
performed within the Title Code Range (TCR) system, a separate PC-based system.
When a non-academic base rates range adjustment or Shift Differential range
adjustment is starting, extract files from the mainframe TCS DB2 database are
created and copied to the IR&C server. The TCR system reads the server files and
processes the range adjustment amounts entered by the users. Range adjustment
extract files are either Preliminary, in which case the data will not be copied back to
the mainframe, or Final, in which case the data will be copied back to the mainframe
for processing.
Files Sent TO the TCS System
The following files are sent to the TCS system from elsewhere:
1. Final Range Adjustment Files
Much of the processing for the staff and shift differential range adjustments is
performed within the Title Range System (TCR), a separate PC-based system. If the
range adjustment extracts used by the TCR system were created as Final extracts,
then the TCR system will place the resulting range adjusted files on the IR&C server,
and these files will be copied by TCS batch jobs for processing. The mainframe
processing of these files includes:
 editing the files against the TCS DB2 database, to ensure that the correct files
were copied from the server;
 updating the TCS DB2 database with the newly range adjusted staff rates or shift
differential rates;
 generation of PPS range adjustment transactions; and
 generation of various reports.

Glossary of Terms Used for TCS
The following abbreviations or acronyms may be used in this document or by users
when requesting jobs:
Term
Description
CPS
Corporate Personnel System, a corporate system that is run on the
VM/CMS system (i.e. the UCCVMA machine). This system is also
referred to as FCP.
CTO
Class Title Outline, a 3-character field used to group titles. This same
field is sometimes referred to as OSC (Occupational SubGroup Code)
when used for non-academic titles.
FCP
Corporate Personnel System, a corporate system that is run on the
VM/CMS system (i.e. the UCCVMA machine). This system is also
referred to as CPS.
FLSA
Fair Labor Standards Act--laws which affect some University personnel
policies. In particular, this act affects how overtime is handled, which is
related to the Overtime Exemption Status Code (OES code) in the Title
Code System.
MSP
Management and Senior Professional Staff, part of the Tier 2 nonacademic Personnel Program. (The other part of the Tier 2 personnel
program is Senior Management (SMG), identified as having titles in the
range of 0001 – 0199 within Tier 2.) This group generally corresponds
to the former Management and Professional personnel program
referred to as MAP.
OES
Overtime Exemption Status Code, a one-character field in the Title
Code System database that indicates how overtime is handled for the
title.
OSC
Occupational Subgroup Category, a 3-character field used to group
titles. This same field is sometimes referred to as CTO (Class Title
Outline) when used for Academic titles.
PCT
Patient Care Technicians, one of the three groups of non-academic
titles that may be selected for a non-academic base rates range
adjustment (the other two are: Nurses and Clerical).
PPS
Payroll/Personnel System, the payroll system that is run at each of the
nine campuses. The Title Code System sends transactions to update
December 14, 2000
Page 23
TCS Operations Documentation
General Information
the Title Code Table (TCT) within the PPS, and also sends range
adjustment transactions to PPS.
PSS
Professional Support Staff, which comprises the Tier 1 non-academic
personnel program. This group generally corresponds to the former
A&PS and Staff Personnel Programs.
SMG
Senior Management, part of the Tier 2 non-academic Personnel
Program. (The other part of the Tier 2 personnel program is
Management and Senior Professional (MSP). The Senior Management
group is identified as having titles in the range of 0001 – 0199 within
Tier 2.) This group generally corresponds to the former Executive
Program.
TAPP
Title and Pay Plan reports, of which there are several types (Staff,
A&PS, Shift and On-Call rates are the four types of Title and Pay Plan
Reports). These reports have become obsolete over the years, but
people still refer to the "Title and Pay Plan". One report is still run by
Information Management, but it is no longer part of the production TCS
system.
Note: PPS also produces local versions of the Title and Pay Plan
report(s) based on data in the Title Code Table (TCT) within PPS.
TCT
Title Code Table in the Payroll/Personnel System that is run at each of
the campuses
TPF&C
Towers, Perrin, Forester and Crosby, the University Actuaries
TUC
Title Unit Code, a 2-character code within the Title Code System
indicating the representation group for the title.

General Information
TCS Operation Streams
Backup Operations Stream
In order to capture online updates for backup purposes, a DB2 unload backup is
run on a nightly basis and a full image backup is run on a weekly basis.
The Backup Operations stream for the Title Code system consists of the
following jobs:
Job
Frequency
TCSDLY
Run nightly, after shutdown of the CICS region for TCS
(CICSPTCS).
TCSWKLY
Run weekly, after shutdown of the CICS region for TCS
(CICSPTCS) on Monday, and before the CICS region is brought
back up on Tuesday morning.
Audit Reports Operations Stream
All updates to the TCS DB2 database (outside of the range adjustment
processes) occur as online updates performed by the users via CICS. A record is
kept of nearly all of the online changes made by the users (a few of the DB2
tables do not have corresponding audit tables for tracking online changes).
These changes are recorded in DB2 audit tables, which are part of the TCS DB2
database. The users will periodically ask for audit reports to be produced from
these audit tables for a specified period of time, so that they may check their
online updates. These jobs will be on-request.
Note: The users may refer to online updates made to the TCS DB2 database as
"monthly maintenance", even though online updates may be made at any time on
a daily basis.
The Audit Reports Operations stream for the Title Code system consists of the
following jobs:
Job
Frequency
TCS4AC
Run upon user request during online updating by academic
users.
TCS4N
Run upon user request during online updating for non-academic
users.
December 14, 2000
Page 25
TCS Operations Documentation
General Information
Month-end Reports and Interfaces Operations Stream
Once all online updates to the TCS DB2 database by the user have been
completed and reviewed, month-end reports and monthly interface files may be
created. The users must indicate when month-end processing may be
completed.
Note: The users may refer to completion of online updates to the TCS DB2
database as completion of "monthly maintenance".
Month-end processing includes creation of the TCT interface. While this interface
will normally be run as part of the month-end processing, sometimes users will
request that the TCT interface be run more frequently, often following a range
adjustment process.
The TCT interface relies on comparing a current extract of data to the prior
extract created as part of the last run of the TCT interface. It is therefore critical
that reruns are done carefully; consult with the Maintenance programmer when in
doubt.
The Month-End Reports and Interfaces Operations stream for the Title Code
system consists of the following jobs:
Job
Frequency
TCSMTH
Run once users indicate that month-end processing may
proceed
TCS54
Run once users indicate that month-end processing may
proceed
TCSFCP
Run once users indicate that month-end processing may
proceed
TCSTPFC
Run once users indicate that month-end processing may
proceed
TCSTCT1
Run when users indicate that the TCT interface should be run
(normally part of month-end processing)
TCSTCT2
Run upon successful completion of TCSTCT1

TCS Operations Documentation
General Information
Shift Differential Range Adjustment Operations Stream
In general, Shift Differential range adjustments occur on an annual basis, but
may occur more frequently (or less frequently). Much of the processing for a Shift
Differential Range process occurs in a PC-based system. Data is initially
extracted from the mainframe TCS DB2 database, is then processed on the PC,
and is finally uploaded back to the mainframe for processing. The initial extract
job (TCSDFR) may be run multiple times as a Preliminary extract for a given
range adjustment, but must be run only once as a Final extract.
The Shift Differential Range Adjustment Operations stream for the Title Code
system consists of the following jobs:
Job
Frequency
TCSDFR
Run upon user request during range adjustment processing.
(This job may be requested multiple times during a range
adjustment process.)
TCSDFUP
Run upon user request after the PC-based range adjustment
processing is complete. (This job will be run only once for a
range adjustment process.)
TCSDFLK
Run upon user request, to unlock the shift differential range lock
in the CTL DB2 table
Non-academic base rates (or Staff) Range Adjustment
Operations Stream
In general, Staff range adjustments occur on an annual basis, but may occur
more frequently (or less frequently). Staff Range Adjustments are performed for
three separate populations (Nurses, Patient Care Technicians, and Clerical), so
three range adjustments may occur very close together. The range process is
also used to update merit-based rates, although no payscale files are sent to
campuses in this case.
Much of the processing for a Staff Range process occurs in a PC-based system
TCR. Data is initially extracted from the mainframe TCS DB2 database, is then
processed on the PC, and is finally uploaded back to the mainframe for
processing. The initial extract job (TCSSAR) may be run multiple times as a
Preliminary extract for a given range adjustment, but must be run only once as a
Final extract.
The Staff Range Adjustment Operations stream for the Title Code system
consists of the following jobs:
