Triggers that Rerun Eligibility Based on Case Information
Under certain circumstances, when a batch trigger is applied to a case, eligibility is run and the result is systematically certified. No worker action is necessary.
Most batch actions will be run monthly (at or around schedule cut-off) by the eligibility batch process, unless otherwise stated.
The 'Last Mass Update Date' field on the 'Case Search/Summary' page shows when the last mass change occurred on a case. Staff may also go to the Eligibility Search page and search for a date range to see eligibility results after a mass change is applied to a case.

Triggers that Generate a Task
The following triggers create tasks in the Changes/Misc EDM queue in the EDM Inbox for each case an individual is on. Tasks also appear on the case. If a task is connected to a person who is on more than one case, both cases need to be reviewed and certified separately.
- Example: Mr. T is a component SNAP member on his parents' SNAP case, and receives ACA Adult medical benefits on a separate IES case. An IDES Wage Mismatch task is received indicating that he had unbudgeted earned income. The worker discovers that he is currently employed and enters his income information on the SNAP case. Since income is stored in IES at the individual level, his income is updated on the medical only case as well. The worker runs eligibility and certifies the results on the SNAP case, and must run eligibility and certify the results on the Medical only case as well.
Tasks in IES are closed when updates are made, the worker runs eligibility and the case is certified.

Triggers that Generate a Notice or Redetermination
Redeterminations may go through several batch actions. For medical EDGs, an interface action occurs prior to generating the REDE notice. The interface runs clearances to determine whether a medical EDG qualifies for an auto-REDE (Process A) or a manual REDE (Process B).
After IES determines if the Medical EDG qualifies for auto-REDE, IES sends the appropriate correspondence to the customer.
A third batch action occurs at cut-off in the last month of the certification period when a medical EDG may be automatically recertified under Process A; or a SNAP, cash or medical EDG may be canceled due to not responding to a REDE notice as required.
