Process Overview
Delivered Benefits Administration does not store processing history for a BAS event in PeopleSoft. Only current processing Benefits Administration data for a BAS event is stored in delivered PeopleSoft. Benefits Administration BAS event processing history is overwritten each time the Ben Admin transaction runs through Ben Admin processing. Delivered Benefits Administration processing does not produce a processing audit trail.
Custom database-level audit tables for Benefits Administration and Base Benefits exist in CHRS to remediate this issue. These custom database-level audit tables record additions, deletions and changes that occur for certain Benefits Administration (Ben Admin) and Base Benefits tables when existing enrollments are changed and deleted due to reprocessing. These audit tables also record the PeopleSoft User ID who made the change along with the date and time that the change was made. Every time a Ben Admin event is processed, reprocessed and changed, or certain Base Benefit tables are updated, the change is recorded in a database-level audit table.
Using database-level audit tables for certain Benefits Administration and Base Benefit tables creates and preserves processing and reprocessing history, creates query-able and auditable tables for electronic signature use with the Hire/Newly Benefit Eligible eBenefits Self Service transaction, provides researchable history for Ben Admin processing and Base Benefit issues, especially when enrollment, submission, Open Enrollment discrepancies/questions arise with employees, IRS, CalPERS or legal venues.
Database-level audit tables exist in CHRS for the following delivered Ben Admin and Base Benefit tables.
Ben Admin tables:
- BAS_PARTIC
- BAS_PARTIC_COST
- BAS_PARTIC_DPND
- BAS_PARTIC_OPTN
- BAS_PARTIC_PLAN
BASE BENEFIT tables:
- LIFE_ADD_BEN
- DISABILITY_BEN
- FSA_BEN
- HEALTH_BENEFIT
- HEALTH_DEPENDNT
The database-level audit tables for Benefits Administration are:
- AUDIT_CSU_BAPRT – this database-level audit table captures all processing data when any data is updated in BAS_PARTIC, including electronic signature data for the NEW BAS event.

In addition to this business process guide, users can review the following CMS user guides and job aids related to this process:
- Employee Event Detail
- Overview of BAS Statuses
- Important: Be sure to reference the Reprocessing a CHRS BAS Event document and the eBenefits OK to Reprocess Cheatsheet before reprocessing any BAS event in the On Demand Event Maintenance page.
Run the CSU_BAS_NEW_NW1_ELECTRONIC_SIGNATURE Query
Use the CSU_BAS_NEW_NW1_ELECTRONIC_SIGNATURE query to see the eBenefits ESS electronic signature date for the NEW BAS event.
Campuses that use full eBenefits Employee Self Service use the NEW BAS event for new hire and newly benefit-eligible elective benefits enrollments in eBenefits. Campuses using view-only eBenefits Self Service do not use the NEW BAS event. Thus, this query is only utilized by campuses using full eBenefits Employee Self Service. View-only eBenefits Self Service campuses only use this query if they are researching a coordination of benefits issue.
Use the CSU_BAS_ELECTRONIC_ESIGNATURE query if you need to see electronic signature data for eBenefits ESS Life Events and Open Enrollment events.
This query can be found on the CSU Benefits Administrator Tile under the Queries section, and also on Query Manager and Query Viewer. Access to these items is based on your PeopleSoft security definition. To access the CSU Benefits Administrator Tile in CHRS, click on the Home Landing page drop down arrow and then select CSU Administrator Home.
- To access Query Manager or Query Viewer, click on the NavBar Icon.
- Menu > Reporting Tools > Query.
Step 1: To run the CSU_BAS_NEW_NW1_ELECTRONIC_SIGNATURE query, enter the applicable Schedule ID, the PeopleSoft Employee ID and the Event ID for the NEW BAS event.
- If you do not have the Event ID for the NEW BAS event, click on the NavBar Icon
- Menu > Benefits > Manage Automated Enrollment > Events > Update Event Status
- Enter the employee ID and locate the Event ID for the applicable NEW BAS event. See the example below showing the Event ID of 2.
Step 2: Click on the View Results button. If the ‘No matching values were found’ message appears, no values were found in the audit table for the employee, which means that the employee does not have a benefits transaction that wrote to the audit table.
Step 3: See the following example query output. Note that you can also download the query results to an Excel Spreadsheet and also a CSV Text File in addition to viewing online. Do not attempt to download the query results to an XML File.
Example CSU_BAS_NEW_NW1_ELECTRONIC_SIGNATURE Query
- Schedule ID – The BAS Schedule ID tied to the BAS event.
- Empl ID – The PeopleSoft employee ID.
- Empl Record – The job employment record associated with the BAS event.
- Employee Name – The employee’s primary name.
- Event ID – The BAS event ID.
- Event Classification – The BAS event class. Also known as BAS Action and Event Class.
- Event Class Description – The event class description.
- Election Source – W stands for Web and means the enrollment came through eBenefits ESS. O stands for Online and means the enrollment came through the Perform Election Entry or the On Demand Event Maintenance page. N stands for None Entered and means no enrollment or changes were entered and the BAS event was finalized with no enrollments entered. N is a common value on Open Enrollment (OE) BAS events when the employee hasn’t submitted any benefit changes.
- Elections Received Date – The date that the employee first submitted his/her benefit elections in eBenefits ESS.
- Audit Oper ID – The PeopleSoft User ID who submitted the elections.
- Audit Stamp – The date and time the employee first submitted his/her benefit elections in eBenefits ESS.
- Audit Action – Indicates if the audit action is a Change - New Value, Change - Old Values, Delete or Add.
- Sort Date/Time – This column is used to sort the audit data so the most recently added row appears at the top of the list.
Run the CSU_BAS_EVENT_CLASS_HISTORY_SUMMARY Query
Use the CSU_BAS_EVENT_CLASS_HISTORY_SUMMARY query to see the Ben Admin processing history, including reprocessing history, for any BAS event that has processed via the Ben Admin module.
For example, in the CSU_BAS_EVENT_CLASS_HISTORY_SUMMARY query you can see when the BAS event was created and by whom, when the employee first looked at the BAS event in eBenefits Self Service, if applicable, what benefit elections were selected and submitted by the employee in eBenefits Self Service (if applicable), along with the exact date and time that the elections were submitted (and conversely see where benefit elections were not submitted). You can see what benefits were keyed by campus Benefits Office staff, along with the exact date and time that they were keyed. You can see if a BAS event was reprocessed and if benefit elections were changed.
Rows are inserted in the audit table when a change occurs to a field listed on this query that results in a plan type enrollment, waive or termination of a benefit plan that has processed via the Ben Admin module (i.e., the BAS_PARTIC.ENROLL_ACTION must equal E for Elect or T for Term)..
BAS events that are voided and/or deleted before a finalized enrollment, waive or termination of a benefit plan occurred are not included on the CSU_BAS_EVENT_CLASS_HISTORY_SUMMARY query. For example, voided BAS events that are deleted by the custom CSU Delete Activity Guide process (CSU_BAS_ACTP) will not appear in the CSU_BAS_EVENT_CLASS_HISTORY_SUMMARY query since these BAS events never had a finalized enrollment, waive or termination. Query the AUDIT_CSU_BAPRT.audit table to audit BAS events that are voided and/or deleted before a finalized enrollment, waive or termination of a benefit plan occurred.
- This query only lists rows where specific BAS_PARTIC processing data fields are updated for a BAS event:
- Schedule ID
