Enroll individual participants in an accrual plan by entering for them the element generated to represent the plan.
Do one of the following:
For enrollment of an individual employee, perhaps as a part of the hiring process, enter the element representing the plan for him or her using the Element Entries window.
For enrollment of a batch of employees in a plan, perhaps a newly-developed plan, use BEE.
The default date for calculating length of service is the first day of the month of an employee's hire date. You can override this by entering another date when you enroll the participant in the plan. This is relevant to plans that have accrual bands based on length of service.
If you enter a date here, it is also used, instead of the employee's hire date, when the seeded formulas calculate the appropriate accrual start date for the employee. For example, if the plan's start date rule is Six Months After Hire Date, accrual will begin six months after the continuous service date you enter.
When enrolling the participant, enter the override date in the Continuous Service Date entry value of the element representing the plan.
