Managing Classes

Overview

The class field on Common Benefits can be used to differentiate groups of employees for benefit eligibility, reporting, payroll, and other purposes. An administrative user may setup as many classes as needed based on their requirements.

Each employee record must be assigned to a class. When a new company is setup, a default class will also be created with the same name as the Company.

Classes may be added manually by an Administrator or automatically through the census import process.

Managing Classes

From the Company Home screen click on Company Setup and then on Classes to open the Class management screen.

Click on a class name to view the different administrative options that are available to manage the class.

Manage Class

The available options include:

  • Edit the class name and available benefits by clicking Edit.

  • Set the class as the default for the company by clicking Set Default.

  • Reassign employee records to a different class by clicking Reassign Employees.
