If Debbie wants an SQL approach to picking the maximum if her 3 dates, 
maybe something like this would do:


select max(MyDate) from

(select com.effdt as MyDate
from ps_company_tbl com
where com.effdt = (select
        min(inner.effdt)
      from ps_company_tbl inner
      where inner.company = com.company and
            inner.effdt  <= sysdate)
union

select pay.effdt as MyDate
from ps_paygroup_tbl pay
where pay.effdt = (select
        min(inner.effdt)
      from ps_paygroup_tbl inner
      where inner.company = pay.company and
      and inner.paygroup = pay.paygroup
            inner.effdt  <= sysdate)
union

select loc.effdt as MyDate
from ps_location_tbl loc
where loc.effdt = (select
        min(inner.effdt)
      from ps_location_tbl inner
      where inner.company = loc.company and
      and inner.location = loc.location
            inner.effdt  <= sysdate)) as T
