MY BENEFIT ELECTIONS.#

The screen WEBOEE is a scroll view of the employee’s election options that are available in the Open Enrollment.

If there are no open enrollments for an employee, a message will be presented indicating there is no information to display. There is a site preference called SS_EMPTY_FRM_MSG(System_Preference) which when set to ‘Y’ will display the message defined in ‘<FORM_NAME>_EMPTY’, where FORM_NAME is the name of the form that has no data to display, i.e.: WEBOEE. These messages can be tailored in IMMS using translations, the message code for WEBOEE is: WEBOEE_Empty.

If elections related to the open enrollment have already been submitted by the employee, only plans that have been re-opened by the Benefit Administrator can be changed.

At any time during the open enrollment process, the employee can print off their open enrollment elections summary. The print icon is displayed at the top of the form.
