How You Manage Benefits Standard Rates Using HDL or HSDL

You can use the HCM Data Loader (HDL) or HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader (HSDL) to manage Benefits standard rates with these objects:

  • Benefits standard rate
  • Extra input values
  • Variable rate profile association

HDL supports all calculation methods. Only flat amounts and multiple of coverage methods are supported for HSDL. The HSDL templates support only create and update methods. The delete method is not supported by the out-of-the-box delivered HSDL template.

Using the HDL or HSDL, you can:

  • Create standard rates starting from a specified date.
  • Update the values of an existing standard rate from a specified effective date.
  • Correct the values of an existing standard rate.
  • End date a standard rate for date-effective objects. (HDL only,)
  • Delete an existing standard rate. (HDL only.)

Click Navigator > My Client Groups > Data Exchange > Import and Load Data to use this HDL or HSDL loader.
