!!!BENEFIT ENROLLMENTS
Benefit Enrollments (IBEN) indicate an employee's participation in a benefit plan, or confirm explicitly that coverage has been declined.

Maintain Benefit Enrollment data is stored on the [P2K_BE_ENROLLMENTS], [P2K_BE_ENROLLMENT_DETAILS] and [P2K_BE_ENROLLMENT_COMPONENTS] tables.

;[Plan|PLAN_CODE]:Plan Code is a user-defined code uniquely identifying the plan to the organization. 

;[Last Remit Date|LAST_REMIT_DATE]:This field displays the date this plan was last remitted to the insurance carrier (or reconciled for internal plans). Each time the remittance process is run, this date is updated by the system to reflect the last date processed. When a user runs remittances for a time period, the system checks there are no missing remittance periods since the last run. This field is system updated, but may be altered.

;[Description|DESCRIPTION]:This is the user-defined description of the benefit plan. This field is defaulted in when the plan is selected, however, you may select a description from the LOV (F9).

;[Participation Rule|PARTICIPATION_RULE]:This field indicates whether participation in a benefit plan or coverage is mandatory or optional. The participation rule on the plan definition is used as a default entry to the benefit schedule. Only the participation rule from the benefit schedule is enforced.
