Reminder!
If you don't designate an administrator for a group,  you will need to assume the administrator duties (Manually assign dependent User IDs and edit existing user privileges as necessary).  To designate an administrator for a group, see Adding a Sponsor User Role below.

Assuming a Sponsor Role

  1. Access Maintenance Menu > Sponsor.

  2. Select the group for which you wish to perform maintenance for/as, and then Assume Sponsor Role.

Tip: An easy way to identify when you have taken on another role is to look directly below the left-hand navigation bar. If you have taken on a different role than you logged in as (e.g., if you logged in as a Health Insurer, but you are currently in a Sponsor role to update the Sponsor's information), you will see the Role ID, shown below:

Warning! Once you have selected a Sponsor, you will see a new set of menus. You will see the menus that someone logging on as a Sponsor would see — you have taken on the role of the Sponsor. To return to the main System Administrator menu, you will need to select  Maintenance > Sponsor and Resume Own Role. This will return you to the main menu.

Adding a Sponsor User Role

  1. Access Maintenance Menu > Sponsors.

  2. Select the group for which you wish to designate an administrator and then Assume Sponsor Role.

  3. Access Maintenance Menu > Users.

  4. Under Create a New User, select the Sponsor button.

  5. Complete the Default Role and then Settings & Preferences: complete the User ID, Name, Password, and E-Mail field.  The user will be required to complete secret questions and answers upon login that will enable them to reset their own password.

View and Update Sponsor Information

  1. Access Maintenance Menu > Sponsors.

  2. Select the group for which you wish to perform maintenance and then Assume Sponsor Role.

  3. Access Maintenance Menu > Sponsor Settings.

Note: The Default Insured Role will be automatically assigned to employees of this group who access WEBeci for the first time with their personal credentials (SSN or Certificate ID) and date of birth (mmddyyyy).  Available role options and the appropriate default role can be customized to each group.

Warning: If 'Activate WEBeci for this sponsor' is not selected, participating groups and their members will be unable to access WEBeci.  Online enrollment through WEBeci can only be performed if 'Active Online Enrollment for this Sponsor' is elected.
