Company Setup 401k Tab

Transcription

1 Reference Sheet Company Setup 401k Tab Use this page to define company level 401(k) information, including employee status codes, 401(k) sources, and 401(k) funds. The definitions you create here become available at the employee level to facilitate various reporting functions relevant to 401(k) reporting. Use the drop down list in the page header to select one of the following options: Funds Defines the various funds available in the 401(k) plan. The employee makes elections to have part or all of their deferrals posted to these funds. Match The 401(k) Wizard assists you in developing the logic to calculate the employer match by answering a series of questions concerning the client s match policy. Source Identifies the contribution source (point of origin) for funds posted to the employee s 401(k) account, whether it is an employee deferral, employer match, or unmatched deferral. Status Defines the various participation categories of a company 401(k) policy. These codes are then assigned to employees on their respective [company] > Employees > [employee] > 401(k) tab. Each option and its associated sub page is explained in the sections that follow. Note The 401(k) status and an employee s status (as defined on the [company] > Employees > [employee] > Status/Position tab) are totally unrelated. Changing an employee s status does not affect the status of the employee s 401(k). Funds option When you select [company] > Company Maintenance > Company Setup > Funds option, the system displays the default Millennium 401(k) fund codes and 401k Funds sub tab, as shown in Figure 1: M3-CoStp401kT-RS-AL
