When attempting to enroll or change an employee’s enrollment in a pension plan, the enrollment can be saved without error if the employee has no spouse or has a spouse with a Dependent Beneficiary ID other than 01; however, the following error message is generated if Dependent Beneficiary 01 has a relationship of spouse:

ERROR

Spouse must be elected as dependent for current coverage code. Plan Type = 82. (3000,315)
