title	1. Running MBEN in Colleague

In Colleague, go to MBEN
In the prompt, enter the current Benefit Enrollment Period (for example: 22OEDEC) and click OK (or hit Enter)

If you just want to run a report:

Change Unsigned Elections and/or Signed Elections to Y, depending on what you want the report to show
Make sure the corresponding Communication Code is blank.
Click the Sort By drop-down and choose how you would like to sort the results (Employee Name, or Department then Employee Name)
If you only want results for employees within a specific department, specify this in the Departments section.
- If you don’t know the department code, you can type … and hit Enter, or …[part of the department code]… to return results that include that text. For example, …IT… would return AIT, CIT, FIT, etc.
Click Save
Change the Output Device to H if you want it to go to your screen (or click the dropdown and select a different option, if not), and click Save.
Repeat step 5 on the next screen.
The report will generate. You may need to click Finish a few times before it displays.
You can export the report results.

Change Unsigned Elections and/or Signed Elections to Y, depending on who you want communicated.
In the Communication Code corresponding with the Unsigned Elections, enter BEOUS; and/or in the Communication Code corresponding with Signed Elections, enter BEOS.
- Note: It is very important to make sure that Unsigned/Signed match on this step, or communications will be sent out incorrectly!
- Note: On the last day of Open Enrollment, use BEOUST (Unsigned Enrollment Today) instead of BEOUS.
Click the Sort By drop-down and choose how you would like to sort the results (Employee Name, or Department then Employee Name)
If you only want results for employees within a specific department, specify this in the Departments section.
- If you don’t know the department code, you can type … and hit Enter, or …[part of the department code]… to return results that include that text. For example, …IT… would return AIT, CIT, FIT, etc.
Click Save
Change the Output Device to H if you want it to go to your screen (or click the dropdown and select a different option, if not), and click Save.
