Cafe 2 (CAFE2)

If the Special Routine ID is Cafe 2 (CAFE2), the Employer Contribution calculation is based on a percentage of an employee’s monthly salary. A guaranteed minimum amount, as well as a maximum amount can be specified in Amount/Percent 1 and Amount Percent 2 fields.

• Amount/Percent 1 is Minimum amount, Amount.

• Amount/Percent 2 is Maximum amount, Amount.

• Amount/Percent 3 is Percent of salary, Percent.

• Amount/Percent 4 (not used in the calculation).

• Amount/Percent 5 is Frequency (1 = Annual, 12 = Monthly, 24 = semi-monthly, 26 = biweekly, and 52 = weekly frequency).

• If the Calculated Salary Type and Calculated Salary Plan fields are entered, Café 2 will use the Calculated Salary Routine when determining the employer contribution. Additionally, when these fields are entered, if Cafeteria Cash Benefit Limit is 0, Café 2 uses the Special Routine Value field on the Benefit Enrollment (ENRL) transaction for the Cafeteria Cash Benefit Limit. If Special Routine Value is 0, there will be no Cafeteria Cash Benefit Limit.
