Function documentationConfigure Benefits Participation Overview

 

You can configure the Benefits Participation Overview application to suit your business needs.

Features

Personalized Screens

Employees can use implicit personalization options supported by Web Dynpro ABAP, such as hiding fields and setting default values to the input fields. These personalization changes are stored in the system until the administrator or the employee clears the personalization.

Changing the Layout

You can change the application using the following:

  • Configuration Change

    Administrators can change the arrangement of user interface building blocks (UIBB) in the overview page (OVP) configuration, and they can add or remove fields in the UIBBs. This layout change is applicable to all users of the system and all clients.

  • Customization

    Administrators can run the application in administration mode and change the arrangement of the UIBBs, hide the fields, and so on. These changes are applicable to all users at client level.

Application Title Handling

In concurrent employment (CE) scenarios, the application title is concatenated with the grouping text of the selected personal assignment for the employee on the CE dialog box on the initial screen.

Track Data

You can track applications for their usage, and you can use SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BI) to gather reports on this data. For more information, see BTracking.

Configure the Evidence of Insurability Form

If an employee enrolls in plans which require evidence of insurability (EOI), the system displays a dialog box with a warning message stating that EOI is required. The dialog box also links to applications configured in the following launchpad:

Role: HRESS_BEN

Instance: EOI_FORM

Configuring the Plan Name

If you configure an application in the following launchpad with an application or URL alias name “BPLAN”, the plan name displays as a hyperlink in the plan details dialog box.

Role: HRESS_BEN

Instance: NAVIGATION

When an employee clicks the hyperlink name, the configured application or URL displays.

Concurrent Employment (CE) Scenario

When an employee has multiple personnel assignments and wants to view the participation overview of the plans in which they are enrolled, they must select the relevant personnel assignment. If an employee has only one assignment, it is automatically selected.

Note Note

Assignments are determined by, and displayed from the Web Dynpro component, Central Service: Concurrent Employment Selection (HRESS_C_PERNR_SELECTION).
