Override Rates

When adding Benefits to agreements in EPRLive, you can set them to allow override rates at the employee or employer level. This can be useful if a benefit allows an employee to define their contribution amount, or an employer has met a cap and qualifies for a discount.

To Edit an Employer Override Rate:

1. Navigate to the Employer's Profile by clicking on their company name from your Employer Roster.
2. Click the Benefit Elections tab.
3. Be sure that the benefit is elected, and in the row with the blue check box, enter the override rate and effective start date.
4. Click Save to save and exit the employer's detail page. Or click Apply to save and stay on the page.

Please Note:

• If the calculation of a rate is based on a percentage, the number entered into the override rate field will automatically be interpreted as a percentage—the system will not allow you to enter a % symbol.
• If the calculation for the benefit is set to a Rate x Hours Worked or Rate x Weighted Hours, the number entered will override that Rate—it will not be a percentage.
• To set an override rate, the employer electable benefit must be elected. (If the election box is not checked, the system will not populate a value in that employer's report for that benefit.)
• Start dates should be set to the first day of the month, and end dates should be set to the last day of the month.
• All dates should have an mm/dd/yyyy format.
