Descriptions
Enrollment Rules define the Cost Divisor. This lets you determine how contributions are displayed to the employee.
The Immediate Update option lets you define when and how benefit changes are updated.
Test can be used to let the user go through the enrollment process an unlimited number of times without updating the database. This is beneficial for demonstrating and testing the enrollment process.
Yes-Immediate creates the benefit when the employee says Yes on the Final Confirmation form. This is just like adding the benefit directly on Speed Benefit Entry (BN31.1).
No-Pending creates records in a pending benefit file. When you are ready to update the benefits, you extract the records using environment tools to create a Comma-Separated Value (CSV) file, then load the benefits using Benefits Conversion (BN531).
For the annual enrollment process, whether you choose to pend the benefits, or update the benefits immediately, the result is transparent to the employee. After the employee completes the enrollment process, the application always displays the employees latest elections when he/she returns to the enrollment process at a later date in the enrollment process. The application always looks for pending benefits, if they do not exist it will look for benefits in effect for the New Date. If no benefits exist for the New Date, it will display benefits based on the Current Date.
