Hello, we are beginning a project to move our retiree records from a legacy system to Lawson v10 HR/Benefits. We want to start to administer health and life benefits for retirees in Lawson.
In our legacy system, retirees were stored under a separate company. Our business partners have asked me to look into a similar set up in Lawson. Does anyone out there do this? So far, I see no advantages to setting up retirees under their own HR company, but I do see more work - it looks like, at a minimum, we would have to set up all new benefit plans under the new company.
In reviewing the HR/BN user guides, it looks like the best practice for benefits is to set up retiree employee groups. Is this what you are doing? On the HR side, do you just identify retirees by their employee status and term date? Does anyone do anything else, such as assigning a user code, moving the retiree into a new process level or department, or... anything else?
We'd be very grateful to learn what others are doing. Thank you!
