BN145 - Flex Dollars Calculation

Run BN145 (Flex Dollars Calculation) to automatically calculate flex dollars
for employees in a flex plan for an entire flex plan year. If a flex plan
gives flex dollars based on benefit election, run BN145 to create flex dollar
records so that each eligible employee becomes a participant in the flex plan.

If the flex plan lets employees keep a percentage of their unspent flex
dollars, when the system creates flex dollars, it creates a standard time
record for each employee in PR30.1 (Standard Time Record). You should enroll
employees in their benefits before the first payroll run of the flex plan year
to offset the standard time record. (For information on how the Benefits
system tracks flex dollars, see the Benefits Procedures Manual.)

If you change flex dollar parameters in BN08.1 (Flex Dollars) and re-run
BN145 to Update, it recalculates flex dollars. You can recalculate flex
dollars using BN145 until you enroll employees in benefits. If you change an
employee's flex dollar record in BN45.1 (Employee Flex Dollars) and re-run
BN145, it does not create a new flex dollar record for the employee for the
flex plan year.

BN145 uses parameters from the Salary Calculation and Age Credits subform in
BN08.1 (Flex Dollars) to determine an employee's age and salary. You can
override the salary and recalculate flex dollars in BN45.1.

For each employee, the report lists: annual salary, base dollars, number of
flex dollars given before benefit election, pre-tax dollar limits, and the
total flex and pre-tax dollars. Base dollars are the flex dollars given to
every eligible employee in the flex plan. If the flex dollars calculated for
an employee are greater than the plan's maximum or less than the plan's
minimum, the report shows the increase or decrease in flex dollars based on
those parameters.
