What Statuses Does Infor Track?

The Benefits Administration application associates a status with each coverage, contribution, and general ledger override record. This status is maintained behind the scenes and tells the application when records need to be updated to employee enrollments. The different statuses are described in the table below.

Status	Description
New Group, New Date	Tells the application that a new record for an employee group not previously associated with a record has been defined.
Existing Group, New Date	Tells the application that a new record for an employee group with a previous record has been defined.
Change Existing Record	Tells the application that an original record has been changed.
Updated	This is the desired status, telling the application that employee enrollments have been updated. Records defined while there are no employee enrollments in a plan will be assigned this status.

Drill around to view these statuses or run a report. The Infor Payroll application will not allow the earnings and deductions calculation program to run if there is a record dated on or before the payment date for the current payroll cycle that has a status other than Updated. This helps ensure that the benefit deductions included in the payroll cycle are current and correct.

Frequency tables have one of two statuses, Updated or Not Updated, but are processed in a similar manner.
