Batch Benefit Enrollment (BN531)

Run Batch Benefit Enrollment (BN531) to import benefits from CSV (Comma Separated Value) files.

Processing effect

BN531 adds benefits the same way benefits are added in BN31.1 (Speed Benefit Entry). Before you run BN531, make sure all plans have been defined for the benefits you are loading.

Troubleshooting

When you run BN531, the application creates an error file called BNBATCHERR. The BNBATCHERR file contains columns for two specific types of errors: DftPreCont and AftTaxToSpend.

DftPreCont: The negative values in this column reflect the portion of the contribution that must be made after tax.

AftTaxToSpend: The value in this column reflects the total contribution cost.

To make corrections, fix the errors indicated in the DftPreCont and AftTaxToSpend columns. Then delete the columns before you run the BNBATCHERR file.

More information

BN531 creates a report showing which benefits were loaded, the cost of each benefit, and an error report of benefits not loaded.
