Remove Employees from Open Enrollment

Remove Employees from Open Enrollment

Find employees who were originally included in open enrollment but have since lost eligibility by running the
Workers no longer eligible for Open Enrollment
report.
Coordination of Events handles most of these situations. Example: If open enrollment started on 11/1 and an employee is terminated on 11/5, Coordination of Events automatically cancels the open enrollment event for the employee after their termination is complete.
If an employee ceases being eligible for an open enrollment event after it has started, you can remove that employee from the open enrollment. Example: The employee was terminated or transferred into an ineligible organization.
The only employees automatically included in open enrollment are those eligible at the time of the open enrollment.
You can remove any employee from open enrollment, even if eligibility hasn't changed.

    Open Enrollment Status Report
    , click a number in the
