Standard Reports
Standard Reports has a preconfigured group census report that you can use to generate lists of group enrollment data.
If you want to build your own employee or enrollment census reports, check out the Custom Reporting section in this article to get started.
Group enrollment census
Use this report to download lists of your group clients, their policies, and enrollment and election data. With this report, you can see the status of group employees and view their enrollments.
You can set report criteria to specify the kinds of data you want to pull into the report and help you narrow down the results. For example, the report will pull census data on all groups in your book of business by default, but you can specify a group so your report only shows data for that particular group.
Note: The standard Group Enrollment Census report only pulls data on group business. You can report on election data for your individual business with Custom Reporting.
Custom Reporting
Want to dig deeper into your group enrollment and election data? Create your own census reports with Custom Reporting. Save and share with others at your agency to reuse them every year during renewals.
If you want a quick, simple report of your group enrollment data, see the Standard Reports section in this article for more details.
