You can change an employee's benefit elections after the event is

 or

. This includes events created by open enrollment, the

  1. Select
    Benefits
    View Benefit Election History
     from the employee's related actions menu.
  2. Select
    Benefits
    Correct Benefits
     from the related actions menu of the benefit event.
  3. Change the benefit elections.
When you click
Submit
, Workday:
  • Retains a copy of the old benefit elections.
  • Sends the changes to the Workday Benefits Network, Payroll Interface, or Workday Payroll.
Use the:
  • Benefit Corrections In Progress Audit
     to see a list of employees with corrections to benefit elections in progress. If you corrected an employee's benefit elections, but that correction isn't appearing on the benefits page in their profile, run this audit to ensure the correction isn't still in progress.
  • Benefit Election History
     tab to see which events have had corrections made, then click the link to see the details of the correction.
Manually correct future-dated election events. Workday doesn't automatically apply these changes to future dated events.
