Every UI state agency is required submit ETA reports to the DOL for funding and statistical purposes. The DOL uses these reports to analyze the state agency’s performance and determine the funding to be released to SCDEW during the fiscal year. Also, the DOL uses these reports to identify the unemployment rate and other employment and business related statistics.
The DOL maintains a system called the SUN system to collect the ETA data from various state UI agencies. SCDEW will upload or enter the information from these reports to the SUN system.
ETA reports are run automatically via a batch job in SUITS when the schedule date and time are met. Once the batch has completed running, the ETA reports are available to be viewed.
