Cause : WT-11261 OED | Invalid OE effective date.
Concern : Null is not checked for OE Effective date.
Correction: Handled null value
Affected Areas : Home--->Open Enrollment Dashboard.

Punam Satpute - for some companies the OE Effective date is populated correctly and for some it is not. Point is, for Berryessa Union School District, Yuba City and UND, the OE effective date is set up as follows. But, on the OE dashboard, Yuba City and Berryessa Union School District have bad OE effective date while that of UND is right. Why is this happening? In other words - why is it NULL for Berryessa and Yuba City, and a valid date for UND? (Curious - after the fix, when you handle null, what date will be shown for Berryessa Union School District on the OE dashboard?)

Hi Abhay,

If we notice OE start and OE end date in these companies then only UND has OE dates added and for Yuba City and Berryessa Union School District they are blank.

To calculate OE effective date, we get year from OE start date which is properly configured on UND which is why it is showing proper in dashboard and for Yuba city and Berryessa Union School District as date is blank ,wrong OE effective date is calculated and stored into dashboard.

After this fix, if OE start and OE end date is blank then we will show blank OE effective date by handling null values. Thanks.

Thanks for explanation Vinayak Kulkarni. This raises another question.

The OE effective date is specified as month/day/NEXT YEAR in the UI. Here NEXT YEAR is next financial year per the company setting. Simply, put, it should always be the NEXT (forthcoming) month and day in the future. It should not consult the OE start date. Thus for all calendar financial year companies that are going into open enrollment now, it should be 01/01/2018. Can we do this? Are there any side effects that could hurt if this is implemented?
