Rethink Open Enrollment and Benefits Approvals and how/when they flow to VP Merged

There seems to be no way to select benefits for the next calendar year and push them to View Point without the current year benefits being lost. In other words, from the beginning of my open enrollment window  until the beginning of the next calendar year, I need BOTH sets of benefit elections to be visible someplace.

the current year benefits need to be visible so the weekly data feeds to our benefit carriers (all 6 of them) correctly reflect EE coverage, rates, effective and end dates, dependents etc.

The NEXT year elections need to be visible to satisfy the benefit carrier requirement that I provide then a census for the coming year ( early December 2018 ) - BEFORE those benefits take effect in 1/1/19.

As the portal currently works, the minute I approve the elections, they go to View Point and either update or replace anything it finds with new , 2019 effective dates and rates,  or marks it inactive all together.

Technically, when we 'Approve' the 2019 selections in the portal, it overwrites all the data in HREB, HRBE and HRBL with 2019 dates, rates etc. - which means that my 2018 data (which is still in force and active) is lost.  I cant get what i need from payroll because there are no dates there.  

I marked this a YESTERDAY - because if I can't have bot sets of data available, then the current year set is the one I've got to go with because it's the one in force, which makes open enrollment on the portal something of a waste of time because I can't provide the carriers what they need in advance, and I also can't replace the current data with next years data. I need both.

    We have not added this feature yet - still getting everyone up on timecard entry - but this would be a non-starter for us.

    We also really need this feature!!!!!  Currently the only option is to mark the benefit election "Approved" which pushes to Vista.  It would be good for this to be a dropdown and default to "New", then the admin can change the status to "Reviewed" and then when the open enrollment is complete, have a batch process that will change all records with "Reviewed" status to "Approved".

    We want to review on a daily basis and either reject or mark each record as reviewed and then push all at once.
