BN531


BN531 - Batch Benefit Enrollment

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

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.

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

For detailed information on loading benefits, see the Human Resources
Conversion Workbook.
