QFR Report Configuration
The Quarterly Financial Report (QFR) is submitted four times a year through GPMS. Of its five components, Maica holds the data for two: bed occupancy and leave utilisation. Maica provides this data through standard reports that providers use to read off the figures for manual entry into GPMS. The reports do not submit to GPMS; they remove the need to assemble the figures from separate systems.
This article explains how the two reports are configured and where their data comes from. It is written for administrators who set up reporting.
For the full set of reporting obligations and which ones Maica supports, see Reporting capability matrix.
Occupancy report
The occupancy report shows operational beds against occupied bed days for a quarter, so the provider can report bed occupancy. It is a cross-object report built on the Claim Batch together with resident funding and entry data.
Source data
Claim Batch provides the Services Australia confirmed operational bed count for each service and claim month.
Funding and aged care entry data establish which beds were occupied on each day of the quarter, using resident entry and departure dates.
Report fields
Service name
The service provider account on the Claim Batch
Quarter
The claim period, grouped into three-month quarters
Total operational beds
The Services Australia confirmed operational bed count, averaged across the quarter
Occupied bed days
The count of days each resident occupied a bed, between entry and departure (or the end of the quarter)
Unoccupied bed days
Operational beds multiplied by days in the quarter, less occupied bed days
Occupancy rate
Occupied bed days as a percentage of operational beds multiplied by days in the quarter
The report is built as a standard cross-object report. No custom development is required beyond configuring the report.
Leave utilisation report
The leave utilisation report summarises approved leave by type for a quarter, matching the leave data the QFR requires.
Source data
The report is built on the Service Agreement Leave records, which capture each approved leave episode by type with its start and end dates.
Report fields
Service
The service provider account on the service agreement
Quarter
The leave start date, grouped into quarters
Social leave days used
Days where the leave type is social
Hospital leave days used
Days where the leave type is hospital
Transition care leave days used
Days where the leave type is transition care
Emergency leave days used
Days where the leave type is emergency
Total leave days
The sum across all claimable leave types
The report is built as a standard report grouped by leave type and quarter. No custom development is required.
These reports support manual GPMS entry. They do not submit to GPMS, and the provider remains responsible for transcribing the figures into the portal within the QFR deadline.
