Use the "Rollover Wizard" every year, when you're ready to open a new enrollment year in your database.
There are 2 steps to the rollover process:
- Step 1 adds the new enrollment year to your database, so you can start setting up and accepting enrollment. During Step 1, you'll be able to copy over core database settings from last year if they're still relevant.
- Step 2 closes the previous year for enrollment. Complete Step 2 once you no longer need to enroll/unenroll, hire/unhire, or register/unregister people for last year.
Learn more about the overall rollover process through our support article here, or watch a short 9-minute demonstration here.
