;[Seq #|COMPONENT_SEQUENCE]:The Sequence field specifies the order in which the Benefits or Payroll Calculation program will calculate the benefits components.\\ \\''For example, in order to calculate the employee deduction that should be collected, it is necessary to know the premium amount. In order to know the premium, it is necessary to know the coverage amount. Therefore, the sequence of which of these items (benefits components) should be found, derived, or calculated first is essential for proper benefit enrollment maintenance.'' \\ \\Sequences are numbered in the order needed for processing, this means that some of the sequences __do not__ correspond to the BC code. It is recommended the sequence numbers not be changed without the supervision of a High Line consultant.\\ \\Component_Sequence is a mandatory 5-digit numeric field provided by High Line.
;[Benefit Component|BC_CODE]:The BC code is a High Line provided code defining the benefits component. All BC codes begin with the letter “B” followed by a 4-digit number.\\ \\__Definitions of each of the benefits components may be found in the ‘List of Benefit Components’ section.__\\ \\BC codes are numbered to be able to group certain types of components together. i.e. B1000’s are all related calculating an employee’s deduction amount.\\ \\BC_Code is a mandatory 16-character alphanumeric field provided by High Line.
;[Description|DESCRIPTION]:This is the description of the benefits component highlighted. Description is an optional 50-character alphanumeric field that is either provided by High Line or you may manually enter.
;[Prompt|FIELD_PROMPT]:Prompt is displayed to the user when in the <BC Value> field.\\ \\''For example, if the benefits component were “B0020 – Enrollment Base Date”, an appropriate prompt would be “Enter Base Date”.''\\ \\Field_Prompt is a 30-character alphanumeric optional field provided by High Line or you may manually enter.

;[Component Text|COMPONENT_TEXT]:The Component Text field provides detailed documentation of the coverage component: its use, purpose, and any dependencies or relationships to any other components. An optional field allows space for more in-depth descriptions of the benefits component. Values are provided and may be edited to suit the installation. Component_Text is an optional 2000 character alphanumeric field either provided by High Line or you may manually enter.

;[Pay Components Allowed|PAY_COMPONENT_ALLOWED]:Each benefit component used by a benefit plan is stored with the value returned from the benefits calculation.\\ \\If the ‘Pay Component’ toggle is ON, allows users to also select a [pay component|PAY COMPONENTS] where the result of this calculation may be stored. In this manner, amounts calculated for benefit lines or enrollment may be recorded in Payroll and therefore will show on a pay register, the employees pay stub and/or the financial ledgers (as required). \\ \\Without a specified [pay component|PAY COMPONENTS], the amount calculated would not be recorded for payroll or costing purposes. Generally used for premiums, employee deductions, employer contributions, taxes and taxable benefits.\\ \\Pay_Component_Allowed is an optional toggle, the value of which is provided for each benefits component.

!!Benefits Component Rules
;[BC Rule Code|BC_RULE_CODE]:High Line provides a 2-digit code to describe the possible options available for each benefits component. The rules shown are applicable to the highlighted benefits component in the BC Code field of the form. BC_Rule_Code from [P2K_BE_BC_RULES] is a mandatory 2-character numeric field provided by High Line.
;[Description|DESCRIPTION]:High Line provides a description of the BC Rule Code. Description from [P2K_BE_BC_RULES] is an optional 50-character alphanumeric field provided by High Line.
;[Next BC|BBC_ID_NEXT]:This field is used to show inter dependencies between benefits components. The BC code found provides a “chain” to the next logical BC code that will be used for this benefits plan. This field is useful to help the user keep track of which components may be necessary to edit for each plan.\\ \\ ''Examples:\\If a plan steps the coverage based on the employee’s age, then Benefits Component B0500 (Coverage Step Method) would use Rule 05 (Use Employee’s Age). The next BC code for Rule 05 of B0500 would be B0510 (Step by Age).''\\ \\BBC_Id_Next from [P2K_BE_BC_RULES] is a mandatory 10-character numeric field provided by High Line and may be edited.
;[BC Rule Text|BC_RULE_TEXT]:This field holds detailed documentation of any special set up requirements or prerequisites for using the rule. This is an optional field to allow space for more in-depth descriptions of the benefits component rules. Values are provided and may be edited to suit the installation. BC_Rules_Text is a 2000-character alphanumeric optional field provided by High Line or you may manually enter.
