BDefined Amount

CNo rate gets sent to payroll

DAmount

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Once an employee makes their benefit election, the communicated amount from the benefits enrollment process is sent to payroll. This communicated amount is the rate associated with the employee's benefit election and is used to calculate the deductions for the benefit. This rate is sent to payroll along with the relevant information about the employee's benefit election, so that the payroll system can accurately calculate the deductions for the benefit.

According to Oracle HCM documentation1, communicated amount is the amount that the participant is told to expect for their contribution or distribution.It may be different from the defined amount, which is the amount that is defined for the rate2.

According to Oracle Support3, communicated rate is defined as per pay period with element frequency rules and it should be calculated properly in Benefits Self Service > Rates > Communicated Amount.

C) No rate gets sent to payroll? Is this a trick question or something? If that were the case, how would payroll know how much to deduct? *chuckles* Clearly, the answer is B.

As an accountant, I can tell you that the correct answer is B) Defined Amount. Payroll needs a specific number to work with, not some vague 'Communicated Amount'.

C) No rate gets sent to payroll? That's just absurd. How else would payroll know how much to deduct? I'm going with B.

I think the rate that gets sent to payroll should be a Defined Amount, so I also choose B.

I agree, it doesn't make sense for no rate to be sent to payroll. I think B) Defined Amount is the correct option.

I'm not sure, but I think C) No rate gets sent to payroll makes sense because the benefits enrollment just determines eligibility, not specific rates.

I disagree, I believe it's B) Defined Amount because that's what was selected during enrollment.
