The rule set used to determine eligibility and calculate payment amounts in respect of the service must be configured to use a combination of client, case, service and invoice or attendance evidence values, depending on the requirements of the agency and the service delivery type. If product delivery processing is being used to determine both eligibility and the payment amount then the recommended approach is to use a separate objective to calculate each of these as follows:-
- The eligibility objective must be configured such that entitlement is determined by checking the value of the relevant attributes, for example, the client's date of birth or employment status. The valueType of the Objective Tag Type for this Objective must be a non money type such as Double to ensure an eligible decision does not result in the generation of financial components, as this is a non-financial objective.
- Entitlement to the payment objective should check for entitlement to the eligibility Objective as well as checking the value of attributes related to custom rates, invoice or attendance evidence. The valueType of the Objective Tag Type for this objective must be Money to ensure the generation of financial components, as this is a financial objective.
