How Benefits Administration Interfaces with Other Infor Applications

This section explains how the Benefits Administration application interfaces with other Infor applications.

Infor Payroll

The Benefits Administration application creates deductions for payroll use. The Payroll application submits salary compensation and hours for tracking against limits. Closing the payroll cycle updates employee balances for covered compensation and contribution amounts for defined contribution and defined benefits plans.

Infor Personnel Administration

The Personnel Administration application creates personnel actions for Benefits Administration automation rules and COBRA record creation.

Infor Time and Attendance

The Benefits Administration application updates the balances in the time accrual plan for vacation buy and sell plans.

Lawson General Ledger

The Benefits Administration application updates the General Ledger application with COBRA and Retiree invoicing.

Infor Employee and Manager Self-Service

The Employee and Manager Self-Service application gives employees and managers access to vital information over your organization's intranet. Employee and Manager Self-Service lets the HR and Payroll departments avoid excessive manual data entry by letting employees and managers update their own information. Your organization determines what information is available for employees and managers to view or update. Employees and managers access the information whenever and wherever it is needed.

Employee and Manager Self-Service lets your organization establish specific benefit enrollment processes through which employees view and update their benefit elections. Employees have instant and direct access to their own benefit enrollment information, including current elections, other plans for which they are eligible, plan descriptions, and detailed coverage and premium information. Employees are led through the process based on rules you define, and an employee eligibility. Employees select their choices and upon completion and receive a summary of their benefit decisions. The employee elections update your database so that no data entry is necessary by your benefits administration staff.
