Documentation

Definition

This indicator defines whether benefits plans under a specific adjustment reason are carried forward to the upcoming benefits year. It may be the case, for example, that you do not wish certain benefit plans created under a specific life event change adjustment reason to be carried forward. Therefore, this Carry Over Action indicator is used to define which adjustment reason (and the plans within it) are carried forward.

You set this Carry Over Action indicator for each adjustment reason under which you wish benefit plan options to be carried forward.

Example

You set the Carry Over Action indicator for the open enrolment adjustment reason. You have also previously set the CarryOver indicator for an insurance plan in the IMG step Define Flexible Benefits Insurance Plan Attributes (FLEX).

During annual (open) enrolment, an employee wishes to enrol in an insurance plan for the coming benefits year XXXX (01.04.XXXX - 31.03.XXXX+1). The system searchs for the same insurance plan record that is valid in the current benefits year. If such a record is found, this plan option will be carried forward to the new benefits year as the default plan option. If no record is found, this insurance plan will be assigned the standard option as default.

Note: This operation exists so that employees can re-select existing plan options. Setting these indicators does not mean that plans are automatically enroled for the new benefit year.
