Understanding the ACA Compliance Overview Page
This step by step training video will explain the ACA Overview page including pending actions and employee details.
Once you complete the setup or configuration process, you'll be directed to the ACA Compliance Overview page. You can also get to this page by logging in to Zenefits and clicking the ACA Compliance app.
From here, you'll be able to generate your 1094-C and 1095-C forms. To ensure that your IRS forms are populated correctly, you need to monitor the data in the ACA Compliance Overview page beforehand to ensure that everything is accurate and to make any necessary edits.
The Overview page is broken out into two main sections:
- Pending Actions
- Employee Table
-Employee Details
-Months Requiring Coverage
-MEC Offered, MVC Offered , and Affordable Coverage Offered
-Enrolled in Coverage
- On the Employee Table, select the Employee Details tab.
- Click on the employee for whom you’d like to make edits. A panel will slide out on the right side of the screen.
- Click on the Employee Details tab to view basic
employment information from the employee’s
Zenefits profile. Clicking Edit will direct you to
the employee’s profile.
TIP: Any changes you make in the employee profile will take roughly 24 hours to be updated on the ACA Compliance Overview page. Click on the ACA Details tab to view information about whether the employee worked enough hours to qualify for coverage, whether the employer was required to offer coverage, the reason why (or why not), the level of coverage offered, the “best plan” that was offered, and compensation details. Simply click Edit for any month to override the information in the ACA Details tab.
TIP: Your edits will only affect the information in the ACA Compliance app (and will be reflected in your company’s IRS forms). These changes will not be pushed out to the rest of Zenefits.
- From the Employee Table, select the Hours Worked (Measurement Period) tab.
- Click on the edit icon in the top right of the table.
- Make edits to any of the employee hours for any employee and any month in the measurement period.
