Anyone using the Stock Options in the Benefit system Or does anyone have documentation on how to use it The Benefit Admin Guide from Lawson is weak and I want to know how it is working for others and what is intended. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Most of our employees are based in our home state, but some are able to work remotely and do so from another state.  Our Tax and Payroll manager has requested us to udpate the job code with the Worker's Comp class for out of state, but doing so would impact everyone attached to that code. Does anyone else have to be concerned with this  If so, how do you manage this  What is the best practice  We want to make certain we are complying with the needs of the organization without creating a prob...

Does anyone have an Addins upload template they would be willing to share for the BN32 screen.  We are trying to delete a benefit enrollment entry on the screen for a specific plan type, plan code and start date.  Thank you in advance!

I'm looking for some guidance on setting up an HSA for the first time effective 1/1/14. We are on 9.0.1 and it seems like I can either choose to do a RS benefit plan or a deduction for the employee (and another deduction if the employer contributes). Is there any guidance or documentation any has on set-up, best practices, and/or lessons learned Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Does anyone want to share how they process final pay and taxable wages etc for a deceased employee

Hi all, Hoping the forum can assist with this issue.  I'm encountering an error when I try to reverse a termination that was keyed in PA52 and activated by the PA100.  Here's the scoop: The employee termed on 6/25/2008. On 9/15/2011 a mass upload was performed to PA52 to change job codes, and his record was included in that update. Then, a termination PA was keyed on his record effective 9/13/13, but it was intended for another employee's record.  I need to reverse the 9/13/13 termination e...

Today in the middle of the payroll cycle (Pr140 had been run in report only) all of the timerecords disappeared. No one in payroll or IS ran PR45 to delete time records. Is there any other way that timerecords could have been deleted by someone that didn't have table write access Is there any way to see who else might have accessed PR45

The $63 per year/per covered life transitional reinsurance fee (TRF) to be paid to the federal government by insured and self-insured group health plans beginning in 2014.  Just wondering how other company's are setting this up.  We have a wellness incentive that will also tie into the overall health premium.  So, the formula would be:  base premium TRF Fee - wellness incentive = total health premium.  We were thinking we would should set this up as 3 sep. health plans since they need to roll ...

I am trying to build an add-ins to add an end date to the HR14 record.  This would technically be a change.  But when I try to run the add-ins it says 'Employee does not exist' when the employee and the add-ins line is clearly in the system I am testing this on.  Has anybody been able to successfully create an add-ins for changing an employees HR14 record  I found a post from 2010 where the person alluded they were having trouble with getting the change to work on the add-ins.  But there wa...

We are adding some of our affiliates to Lawson for benefits and payroll processing.  Each affiliate will have its own process level within our main HR company.  We are struggling with the best way to allow access to only the BN15 plan codes that apply to each affiliate.  The process level field does not exist on BN15. How have other companies handled this Thanks,

We have a termed employee that moved to Australia. We don't have Australia set up as a Country so we can't set up his address properly on HR11. I'm guessing that setting up a country would involve BSI. Is it really worth it to go through all of this effort to just make sure we can have the correct address show up on the W2 Or is it easier than I think

Hi, We are using Lawson 9.0.1 and ESS 9. We are planning to upgrade to ESS version 10 and Lawson told me that we do not need to upgrade to Infor 10. I would like to know if someone is using ESS version 10 (with Lawson 9.0.1) and if you find any challenges during the upgrade. We have a lot of customizations in ESS Thank you, Lorena

Besides modifying the interface file from Lawson to ADP, is there a way to combine the state and local taxes for Maryland  ADP is requiring that they are all combined versus sending them separately in the file. Thanks!

Trying to setup a wellness plan where employee's receive a pre-tax wellness credit that will be subtracted from their total pre-tax health premium cost if they participated in the plan (we would get a list from the provider and I'm guessing mass load participants to UDEF in order to track and create groups).  I'm not seeing much information about setting up a wellness plan with credits.  I am trying to test lifestyle credit option (HR11) but, this seems to have limitations.  Does anyone else off...

In Lawson there is a way to handle exempting employees completely from federal tax without PR having to manually exempt them  When we prepare the incentive payments, employees have the option of exempting the federal tax from the payment.  However, they have to contact PR, fill out manually a W4 and send it to them.  They then manually exempts the employee and then once the payment is processed has to reverse the exemption.  Is there an easier way to handle this

I am trying to test an Employee Voluntary Life plan in our test environment.  This was set up on PR14 directly as opposed to being set up as a benefit plan.  We want to set up Employee, Spouse and Child Life plans for 1/1/14 so I am trying to test this now.  I added the plan and I am getting an error message each time I try to add the benefit.  In test, I made the effective date 11/1/13.  What am I missing

has anybody had an issue with voiding checks that create multiple entries on LP53

I noticed in some of the other subject areas, there is a separate forum for Lawson/Infor 10.  Would it be possible to get a separate forum for the HR/Payroll/Benefits area  Thank you!

Trying to confirm that records for termed employees would normally be skipped by PR514 (at the same time, looking to see if a custom program here skips them first) - thanks!

We are looking at trying to automate the running of BN101, PA100, BN100 and LP100s.  Are you running those jobs on a schedule  What issues have you found  What date do you use in the dates on each of the job  We currently use the prior days date for the PA100, BN100, LP100 and the first of the next month for the BN101.

I am writing a custom program and it's my first time writing a report i 4GL. My program is in recovery mode due to bad file status 4 8 on file LPCAPFHL-file. I am able to write to the first report (dtl-empbal) with no problem. However, I have issues with creating a second report. Am I misssing a section/definition I defined the file LPCAPFHL in the WF defintionReport Form : LPCAP.rpt$REPORT    LPCAP$REPORT    LPCAP-2$PRINTFILE LPCAPFHL

Our plan years start on Jan 1. We will have annual enrollment through ESS open from 11/11/13 to 11/30/13. We also have new hire enrollment through ESS. Employees have until the last day of the month to enroll. So for employees that are hired between Oct 2 and November 1, they can enroll in 2013 benefits until November 30 and we are testing whether or not they can enroll as a new hire and also for 2014 benefits through annual enrollment in ESS. What I am wondering is whether or not we can set...

Does anyone know what effect changing a sub-status to escheat does on PR85 We are trying to find out if it creates anything that passes to the GL but we aren't seeing anything. There isn't a whole lot in the documentation that I have been able to find.

I'm defintely not a tax expert so hoping someone here can lend some expertise - We withhold county taxes on our MD employees.  We recently reimbursed an individual some money that was withheld through our roth plan,  The check from which  the money was originally withheld did not have taxable wages reduced by the deduction amount (as expected).  However, when reimbursing this individual using PR39 with a reverse deduction, the employee's county taxable wages was increased by the reimbursemen...

Has anyone ever seen this one before Warning: Your benefits have not been fully updated. This summary may be incomplete. Please contact your benefits department. The message comes up on the Annual Enrollment Summary. We have Immediate Update set to N on BS01. The employee is required to make an election for every benefit (either coverage or waive). Looking at this employee's BN32 record, there is an end date on all of their current benefits as it normally would after someone has gone thr...
