Job 031D produces an EQUI-based multi-quarter score report. This report is produced by first identifying Micro File records that will qualify for the next EQUI report. Employment and wage edits are performed for these identified records and a score is given to those records with employment or wage errors. The report is produced with records that have scores above a specified cut-off point. An option is available to treat all records with errors as seasonal, thus reducing the normal score by 5 points.
Job 031D enacts the edit scoring methodology on all quarters eligible for inclusion on the EQUI, finding any accounts that have high employment and wage volatility, regardless of whether they are on the Micro Edit File. This applies to all quarters that are eligible for inclusion on the EQUI File (2 to 5 quarters). The scoring can be augmented both by the appearance of a seasonal behavior and by the presence of comment codes. Accounts with the highest score will be listed on the final-checks report, along with the year/quarter for which the data are questioned. These should be reviewed one last time before the EQUI is submitted with Job 011D.
