Oracle R12 not calculating SDI California correctly in 2026?
Is anyone else having issues with SDI CA not being calculated correctly. We have all the patches installed and looks like for 2026 it is still using the 1.2% rate instead of 1.3%. I would also like to ask how SDI is calculated to make sure we re doing it right. Is it 1.3% of the gross amount? If anyone has had this issue any help would be appreciated

Re: Automatic receipting by Company
We run the R03B551 on our job scheduler, and we set up a special user id just for this job. We then set up a special security role just for this user id. For this security role, we added row security on the F03B11 for the companies that we did NOT want the R03B551 to match to. See attached file.
Hope this helps!
