Defining a Group

You define a group on the Custom Statement page. You access a group on the Group Definition page. The statement type is always G (Group Function Definition).

When you set up group custom statements, you enter the requirements in Boolean If clauses. You do not need the Then portion of the If-Then statement. When an employee meets the conditions, a yes value is assumed.

You can base groups on any criteria that the database tracks. This might include:

  • Personal and job data—for example, the employee status is active.

  • The event reason entered at calculation time—for example, the event reason is death.

  • Results from other parts of the calculation—for example, the vesting percentage is 100.
