Form ID

If you use several check stocks for FSA Administration, set up a form ID for each one.

Last Form Number Used

The first time you print FSA checks using a form ID, enter the last form number that you used. After that, the system updates this field each time you print checks using the form. You can update this field if the form numbers are out of sequence. This can happen, for example, if you delete a check.

Use the Benefit Program page (BEN_PROG_DEFN1) to add business rules for benefit programs.

Each time you initiate claim payment processing, identify the run ID for that cycle. The system processes claim data for employees in the benefit programs with those run IDs.

FSA Maximum Annual Pledge (flexible spending account minimum annual pledge)

Enter the maximum amount that an employee in the benefit program is allowed to pledge. For a plan year, this is the total maximum that an employee can pledge for both health-care and dependent-care FSAs.
