Beneficiaries within BEM are mapped through the "BenefeciaryGroup" node, then into the Employee node. Dependents and Employee beneficiaries leverage the "BeneficiaryPartyID" to link the beneficiary node back to a specific Employee or Dependent within the transmission.
- Within "Beneficiary" is a "BeneficiaryPartyID" related directly to an employee or a dependent.
- For an employee, the "BeneficiaryPartyType" would be "Employee" and the "BeneficiaryRelationshipType" would be "Self".
- For children beneficiaries the "BeneficiaryPartyType" would be "Dependent" and the "BeneficiaryRelationshipType" would be "Child".
- The schema requires a dependent to be included with a complete dependent node to be sent as a beneficiary.
