User-Defined Criteria
You can define your own eligibility criteria that meet any special requirements of your organization. Associate your criteria with eligibility profiles.
This topic provides an example and discusses creating and using a user-defined criteria.
Example
Your organization wants to use work-at-home assignment as the eligibility criteria for a monthly telecommunications allowance. The table and column already exist, but the data is not available from existing eligibility criteria tabs on the Create Eligibility Profile page. Therefore, you must first create the work-at-home criteria so that you can then use it with an eligibility profile.
Creating the Criteria
Use the Manage User-Defined Criteria task in the Plan Configuration work area. The data for the eligibility criterion that you create must be stored in a table that is accessible to the application. The procedure varies depending on the table.

Using the Criteria
You can define one or two sets of criteria on the Create User-Defined Criteria page. The participant must meet the criteria defined in either set to be considered eligible or ineligible.
After you create your user-defined criteria, you can add it to an eligibility profile on the User-Defined Criteria tab in the Other category.
