Renaming & Deprecating
As we've adapted the EAH views to your needs, we have found changing field names is painful for both report developers and our team due to the name change breaking reports, data integrations and packages / data sources. In an effort to avoid this pain, we are going to utilize the following name change strategy.
- ITS-BIA will release new fields with the revised field name in the views that contain the field to be renamed, or where a view is to be renamed ITS-BIA will release as a new view the view with the revised name.
- ITS-BIA will allow a transition period for report developers to repoint their reports at the new fields / views.
- ITS-BIA will remove the data from the old fields / views and allow a second transition period. This will not break the report but will highlight where the fields / views are still in use as they will become blank.
- ITS-BIA will deprecate the fields / views. Any reports the have not transitioned by this point will break.

EAH-ApprovalExtendedAbsenceDetail-View
BIA and the UC Path Reporting team are excited to release the EAH-ApprovalExtendedAbsenceDetail-View. This View will report on the Employee Extended Leave Absence Request Workflow Statuses for the campus which will assist the HR/Payroll teams in managing their work. UCPath can only show this data one employee at a time but EAH will allow the analysis of multiple employees. This view will be part of the EAH Core views and will include row level security. This view will be going to Production in March 2025.

UAT - Customer Service Reminder
Data in UAT is not ready to be shared with end customers, is not considered completely validated and can change suddenly. For optimal customer satisfaction, do not connect your production solutions to packages / data sources that are in UAT. If you choose to share UAT items with end customer, be explicit that the data and report is in UAT and can change suddenly or be broken by UAT changes.
Follow our Enhancement User Acceptance Testing (UAT) Steps
- Cognos: Use the packages in Cognos DEV > Student Activity Hub > Student Activity Hub Packages UAT to build your report and select Hana QA. Do not select Hana Prod as the report will fail. Using Hana QA will allow you to see the below enhancements with Production data.
- Tableau: Sign into Tableau on your Tableau desktop tool and open your report. Add a new data source with the same name and -QA at the end of the title. Using this data source will allow you to see the below enhancements with Production data.
- Hana QA: SAH data in Hana QA is production data loaded daily, just like in Hana PROD.
If you find an issue, please include in your email to busintel@ucsd.edu the following:
- What browser are you using?
- What environment are you using? Cognos DEV, QA or PROD? Or Tableau?
- What data source / package are you using?
- What results were you expecting?
Reminder: QA data sources will be deleted the Friday after the enhancements are migrated to Production.
