What Does The PEO Administered Benefits Field On The Pricing Batch Do?

Summary

In ClientSpace PEO the 'PEO Administered Benefits' field denotes that the PEO is handling the benefits administration for their client, but what does this mean from a pricing perspective and what does it impact in the rest of the system?

So what does it do?

If PEO Administered Benefits (luPEOAdministeredBenefits - the field label can be changed in your installation) is set to yes, then the PEO systems SetDefaults() rule pulls the Surcharge percent from the Admin Workspace | Default Info page, this is then used to set the Pricing Batch's Surcharge Percent and from that the Surcharge Amount.

Both Surcharge Percent and Surcharge Amount are used in other things, such as Pricing Views and Client Master validation. These include the following:

peo_vwPricingInfo_All - Reporting View
peo_vwPricingInfo - Reporting View
peo_pricingbatch_u_base_pricing_info - Sets the Batch Benefits Surcharge Amount, among other things, based on calculation.
