     you finalize open enrollment, select a number in 1 of these columns:
    • Not Started
    • In Progress
    • Submitted
    • Closed With Changes
    • Closed With No Changes
    To change an employee's benefit elections
    after
     you finalize open enrollment, access
    Active and Completed Open Enrollment Status Report
    . Select a number in 1 of these columns.
    • Finalized with Changes
    • Finalized with No Changes
    If you have finalized open enrollment, you can also select
