The Load Benefit Elections (LBEN) screen is an extension of the technology used by [LMTD]. LBEN has the same functionality of the [LMTD] with the exceptions that an [IDIF] interface code must be defined and the process is strictly used to update Benefit Elections. The LBEN has been designed to call the special benefit election logic which checks the schedule to ensure the employees are eligible for the benefit plans/coverages.
The Load Benefit Elections (LBEN) screen is an extension of the technology used by [LMTD]. It was originally built for a particular client and thus was very customized. However, it has recently undergone some changes to make the LBEN more generic and powerful, like that of the [LMTD]. LBEN will now respect derivation expressions where as previous versions of the function did not.

The original LBEN still exists and is now known as LBEN_407. The new LBEN has the same functionality of the [LMTD] with the only exception that it is strictly used to update Benefit Elections. The LBEN has been designed to call the special benefit election logic which checks the schedule to ensure the employees are eligible for the benefit plans/coverages.

;:The interface format used for LBEN follows the same rules as that of the [LMTD]. Please review the [DATA LOADER IDIF FORMAT] page which outlines what is required to be defined in [IDIF].

;: The extract directory is defined using the [EXTRCT DATA FLDR|EXTRCT DATA FLDR(System_Preference)] preference. The load directory is defined using the [LOAD DATA FLDR|LOAD DATA FLDR(System_Preference)] preference. The [ATTACHMENTS FLDR|ATTACHMENTS FLDR(System_Preference)] must be specified so the load functions know where to write the report exceptions log to.

;:The report text file will be located in the directory which was specified in the [IMST] preference [LOAD DATA FLDR|LOAD DATA FLDR(System_Preference)]. These exceptions will not be reported in the PDF report for LBEN so it is important for users to have access to this folder to review when loads fail. The file name will be the original file name prefixed with "LOAD REPORT -" and the mex id and suffixed with "via IDIF 'NAME_OF_IDIF_USED'.txt", for example "LOAD REPORT - 9916_OPTIONAL_LIFE.csv via IDIF HL$OPT_LIFE.txt". This file will be stored in the [LOAD DATA FLDR|LOAD DATA FLDR(System_Preference)] folder on the server.

;:If records are not loaded due to errors, these bypassed records will be copied to a separate file which can be loaded once the records have been corrected. This allows you to load in just the bypassed records without having to manipulate the original file. The file name will be the original file name prefixed with the mex id and suffixed with _BYPASSED.txt, for example "9916_OPTIONAL_LIFE.csv_BYPASSED.txt". This file will be stored in the [LOAD DATA FLDR|LOAD DATA FLDR(System_Preference)] folder on the server.

|Server File| This field provides the name of the file that has been placed on the server\\ in the directory specified in the [IMST] record [LOAD DATA FLDR|LOAD DATA FLDR(System_Preference)].
|Local File| This field allows you to upload a local source file for loading into the database\\ (similar to that of WW Reports in Personality). To do this, you must populate the\\ 'Local File' field by selecting the local source file using the file chooser. When \\selecting a local source file to load, the 'Server File' field MUST be blank.

|Interface Code| An Interface Code must be specified when using the DIF Data Loader logic. You can select multiple interfaces if you have to run a particular source file multiple times using different interfaces. If the source file has thousands of records it is suggested to run the LBEN multiple times selecting only one interface code each time otherwise there may be an impact on performance.
