Function UserCalcs#
1. Start Function UserCalc names with the component number
(e.g. B0600, A0250)
2. Follow with the 3 - 5 character acronym of the plan, coverage or policy.
(e.g. MED, HLTH, DENT, XHLTH, LIFE, FLEX, OLIF, XLIF, COMP, DCOMP, VACN, VACP, SICK, XSICK, PERS, PTO, FMLA)
3. Follow with a 3-5 char component type
(e.g. DATE/DT, PREM/PR, DEDN/EE, CONTR/ER, STEP/ ST, RATE/RT, HOURS/HRS, TIME/TM)
4. Include a consistent 2-4 char type usage convention for time types
(e.g. TKN, ACCR, DON, REC, USED, WRKD)
Some examples of Function UserCalcs using these conventions would be:
- B0600 MED PREM
- B0500 SUPER STEP
