Performing mass plan transfers by eligibility group

Use this procedure to perform resource and balance transfers between plans for multiple resources.

Use Transfer Plans by Eligibility Group if a plan is being discontinued or divided. Resources are moved to a new plan. Then run Process Plans and Close Plans.

  1. Select Absence Management > Enrollment > Transfer Plans > By Eligibility Group.

    Organization Unit Group
    Specify an organization unit group to limit the resources that are included for processing. If selected, leave the Resource Group, and Resource fields blank.
    Resource Group
    Specify a resource group to limit the records. If a resource group is selected, leave the Organization Unit Group and Resources fields blank.
    Resources
    Select up to eight resources to include in the transfer. If selected, leave the Organization Unit Group and Resource Group fields blank.
  3. In the Transfer From section, specify this information:
    From Plan Type
    Specify the plan type from which to transfer resources.
    From Eligibility Group
    Specify the eligibility group on the plan from which to transfer resources.
    Include Plans with Override Set
    Select this check box to include Resource Plan records in the transfer that have the Override option selected.
    Create Zero Balances
    Select whether the plan balances from the Transfer From record are zeroed out as part of the transfer. If this field is not selected, no offsetting transactions are generated for the balance amounts that are added to the new resource's record.
    End Accruals For The From Resource Absence Plans
    Select whether the Resource Plan ends in the Transfer From plan. If selected, the Accrual End Date is populated on the resource’s record.

    Specify the eligibility group on the plan to which to transfer values.
    To Plan Entry Date
    Specify the plan entry date for the Transfer To plan.

    When the Transfer To resource plan already exists: if you select the Earliest Date option, the Plan Entry dates between the Transfer From and Transfer To resource plans are compared. The earliest of the two dates is used on the Transfer To resource plan.

    When the Transfer To resource plan does not exist: the plan entry date for the Transfer From resource plan is compared to the transfer date parameter. The earliest of these two dates is used on the Transfer To resource plan.

    If No Adjustment is selected and there is an existing Transfer To resource plan record, its Plan Entry date is unchanged. If No Adjustment is selected and there is no existing Transfer To resource plan record, the Plan Entry date on the Transfer To record that is created contains the Transfer Date.

    Keep Plan Override
    This option is displayed if you selected to include plans with override set in the Transfer From options. If this option is selected, the Override field on the Transfer To plan remains selected. If cleared, the Override field on the Transfer To plan is cleared.
