Understanding the Current Coverage Workfile for Self Service

The Current Coverage Work File Build program (R085530) should be run prior to running these reports:

  • Available Plans Work File Build (R085520)

  • Build Current Dependent/Beneficiary Work File (R085537)

  • Personal Employee Information Workfile Build (R054101)

The Current Coverage Work File Build program creates the Employee Current/Pending Elections Work Table (F085530W) that contains current employee enrollment information. The system uses this workfile to display the benefits in which an employee is currently enrolled. When you build the Employee Current/Pending Elections Work Table, the system uses information from these tables:

  • Employee Master Information (F060116)

  • Employee Enrollment (F08330)

  • Categories Within Benefit Groups (F08350)

  • Plans Within Benefit Categories (F08351)

  • Benefits Plan Master (F08320)

  • Plan Additional Options (F083202)

You should run this report at these times:

  • Before employees use the benefits self-service programs to enter changes and new information

  • Before each open enrollment

  • Periodically, after employees enter benefit changes

    When employees re-enter self service after entering changes, they can view their updated information only after this report is run.

If the version number has been created for the Build Current Dependent/Beneficiary Work File program (R085537), and a processing option is set appropriately, the Current Coverage Work File Build program automatically launches the Build Current Dependent/Beneficiary Work File program.
