Enrolling Dependents

This procedure enables you to enroll dependents into benefit plans after you have enrolled employees. The application will generate possible start and stop dates for dependents based on the employee's start date and the maximum dependent and student ages defined on the plan. You can override the system-generated dates with later start dates if desired.

Before you can enroll dependents, you need to enroll the employee into the benefit plan and choose a benefit option that covers dependents.

To enroll dependents

  1. Click the Dep button on Employee Benefit Entry (BN31.2), to open Dependents (HR13.2).
  2. Select the Add line function for those dependents you want to enroll.
    Note: If you want to enroll dependents at a later date, use Dependent (HR13.1), Coverage tab, and click the Benefits button.
  3. If you want a different start date than what the application uses, type the new date. You cannot enroll a dependent with a date earlier than the employee's start date.
    Note: An asterisk (*) appears next to the detail line, indicating the dependent is enrolled.
  4. Select the Add function.
