PeopleSoft Manage Base Benefits Business Process
The PeopleSoft Manage Base Benefits business process includes four core phases of operation:
Setting up supporting tables and benefit plans.
Building benefit programs.
Assigning employees to benefit programs and enroll them in plans for which their program enrollment makes them eligible.
Note: For Federal users, employees are assigned to benefit programs through the HR PAR process.
Calculating rates and benefit deductions.
If you use PeopleSoft Payroll for North America, you calculate deductions through the payroll process. If you use another payroll system, you use PeopleSoft Payroll Interface to link the PeopleSoft benefits information to that system.
