Self-check: eligibility profiles and derived factors

Four questions on how many profiles a plan versus a type accepts, the OR/AND combination rules, include/exclude semantics, and creating derived factors before referencing them.

What this checks

  • State how many profiles an absence plan versus an absence type accepts
  • Apply the combination rules: OR within a criteria type, AND across types
  • Use include and exclude criteria correctly
  • Create a derived factor before referencing it

Every incorrect option names the misconception it represents. A wrong answer tells you which model of the process you reached for, which is the part that is worth correcting.

1. A policy needs three criteria on an absence type and two different profiles on an absence plan. Which attachment is legal?

State how many profiles an absence plan versus an absence type accepts · targets: Assuming every object takes multiple profiles, and splitting a type’s criteria across profiles that are never applied.

2. A profile has two postal code ranges as values of the Home Location criterion, plus Gender = Female. Who qualifies?

Apply the combination rules: OR within a criteria type, AND across types · targets: Applying AND within the same criteria type (nobody qualifies) or OR across types (everyone in either range qualifies).

3. A savings-plan profile includes Assignment Category = Full-Time and excludes the age derived factor "Age 64 or Older". A 70-year-old full-time employee: eligible or not?

Use include and exclude criteria correctly · targets: Reading the exclude flag as "also eligible if full-time", or thinking an excluded band still qualifies when another criterion matches.

4. A length-of-service criterion is needed for a plan. The implementer adds "Service 10 to 14" to the profile immediately. What happens?

Create a derived factor before referencing it · targets: Assuming criteria values can be typed into a profile directly, like predefined values such as gender.
