Working with Benefit Details Navigation Collection Using the PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface

This topic discusses how employees use the PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface to perform benefits self service activities using the Benefit Details Navigation Collection.

PeopleSoft HCM provides two navigation options for Benefit Details while using Employee Self Service:

The Benefits fluid pages appear in a framework that includes the following:

  • An overall page title of “Benefit Details”.

  • The common employee self service header.

    The header includes the employee’s name, job title, and a related actions icon. The related actions icon provides access to additional self service transactions.

    See Common Header for Employee Self-Service Pages

  • A panel on the left with tabs for accessing specific pages, called the Navigation Collection.

  • A supplemental panel on the right with links to resources.

For general information about fluid pages in PeopleSoft HCM, see Understanding PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface Homepages
