You are here: TSM SmartClient Menu Options > Setup Menu > System > Plan Types

Plan Types

Use the Plan Types option to establish the Plan types, which may be assigned to the Plan(s) on the Setup > Plans > Plan - Setup tab. Only Taft-Hartley and NonQualified are system-generated; all other plan types are user-defined.

Important Notes

·         Once a Plan Type is assigned to a Plan, it cannot be deleted.

·         If the Plan Type of Taft-Hartley is assigned to a Plan, TSM SmartClient automatically selects the Requires Union Contractor Detail check box. It cannot be changed.

·         If the Plan Type of NonQualified is assigned to a Plan, the Report Taxes (Non Qualified Only) check box is available and unselected.

·         Since Taft-Hartley and NonQualified are system-generated Plan Types, they cannot be deleted, whether they are assigned to a Plan or not.
