CLER for NFC

Viewing a Matching Carrier Enrollee Record or Duplicate Payroll Office Enrollee Record

The Matching button at the top of the Payroll Office Enrollees View page allows users to view enrollee data from a carrier enrollee record that matches a selected payroll office enrollee record. Since there may be more than one matching carrier enrollee record, a Matching button is displayed for each matching record. The Duplicate button next to the Discrepancy field on the Payroll Office Enrollees View page allows users to view data from another payroll office enrollee record that was submitted for the same enrollee. The Matching and Duplicate functions facilitate the reconciliation process.
