Can element eligibility be defined using Business Unit for an Assignment-level element?

• A. Yes, it can be used.
• B. No, you cannot meet the requirement to use BU as eligibility criteria.
• C. Only when the element is defined at the Payroll Relationship level.
• D. Open Eligibility is required to enable BU criteria.

Answer: (B)

Element eligibility controls when an element applies based on criteria evaluated against the data available for the worker’s assignment. For an element defined at the assignment level, the system evaluates eligibility using fields tied to the assignment, not the Business Unit. Business Unit is not a valid eligibility criterion for an assignment-level element, so you can’t meet the requirement of using BU as eligibility for that type of element. If you need BU-based control, you’d define the element at the Payroll Relationship level where Business Unit can be used in eligibility criteria. Open Eligibility does not enable BU criteria for assignment-level elements.
