Most of the data which enters the CEFA system comes from campus input.  Campuses extract data from their local facilities systems and forward it to the Office of the President on computer files in a format prescribed by the CEFA input specifications (see Chapters 3 and 4).  Other data in the CEFA system comes from tables developed and maintained at UCOP.  These tables allow the system to categorize and sort the data in other ways.  The OMP Funding Eligibility Codes and Program Code Names are examples of classification tables.

Facilities Files

Each year, on the tenth working day of December, campuses submit replacement facilities files.  In order to insure that the data which enter the CEFA is correct, they are filtered through an edit process.  The edit process examines the data and judges it according to established criteria for validity.  The edit program generates a series of reports which list all invalid data and flag data which fall out of expected ranges.  These reports are reviewed by the appropriate Office of the President functional user and forwarded to the campus functional user.  All campus files must clear the edit process and be approved for use before the corporate database can be built and any data can be used.

Standard output reports are produced upon completion of the edit process and the building of the corporate database. These standard output reports are provided to the functional users in the Office of the President.

Conversion File

The Facilities-Equipment Conversion File is used to link facilities and equipment data for various reporting requirements at the Office of the President (e.g., instructional equipment replacement and capital improvements reporting).  The Conversion file, with data as of the end of each fiscal year, is used in conjunction with the Fall facilities data from the previous calendar year (the same fiscal year).  The mapping of equipment custody codes to the appropriate program codes is critical to the accurate reporting and analysis of these data.  The current reporting schedule to meet State and Regental deadlines does not usually allow for the resubmission of this file.  Therefore, edit reports should be reviewed and corrections made prior to the next reporting cycle.

However, the edits are only able to catch gross errors in the file (e.g., invalid or missing data).  The accuracy of the mapping can only be detected through careful scrutiny by knowledgeable campus personnel.  Therefore, the standard output reports listing the file as submitted by the campuses and as used in the corporate databases (data is rolled up at UCOP so that each custody code has only one program code) should be reviewed each cycle.

Facilities File Edit Reports

Before the corporate facilities inventory database can be built, the CEFA team (consisting of OP functional users in the Budget Office and Information Resources and Communications) reviews a series of edit reports that are generated from updated campus data files.  The CEFA team examines the data contained in the edit reports for accuracy, consistency, and validity. Upon completion of the review, the CEFA team advises and notifies the campus of (a) the outcome of the edit review and (b) whether or not corrections to and re-submittal of the building and room files are required.
