Is it possible for employees to confirm their own benefit elections?

We recommend administrators confirm employee enrollments in order to ensure accuracy, however there may be instances where you prefer the employee have the option to approve their own elections. If so, you can adjust the approval setting on the life event. 

Require Enrollment Approval is a setting within each separate life event. This setting configures the life event to require an Administrator’s approval for any employee enrollments originating from that particular life event. If this option is turned off, any employee who navigates through the enrollment wizard and submits elections for that life event, will be automatically approved and no further action is required.

To turn off Require Enrollment Approval:

1. Navigate to Namely Payroll > Enrollment Setup > Configuration > Life Events.

2. Select Edit next to the Life Event in which you wish to remove the approval requirement.

3. Find the option titled Require Enrollment Approval and deselect the box.

4. Review your changes and select Save.
