The eligibility and entitlement engine generates financial components from case decision objectives. To generate these financial components, the eligibility and entitlement engine uses the case decision period and the nominee delivery pattern. If the case decision period includes a portion of the delivery frequency at the beginning of the decision period, a once-off, ramp-up financial component is created for the decision. If the case decision period encompasses one or more deliveries based on the delivery frequency, the eligibility and entitlement engine will create a recurring financial component. The frequency of the recurring financial component is the delivery frequency. If the case decision period includes a portion of the delivery frequency at the end of the decision period, a once-off, ramp-down financial component is created for the decision. Note that the financial component amount is calculated using the appropriate case decision objective tags. For information on financial component creation with multiple objective tags, see Financial Component Creation for Multiple Objective Tags. The eligibility and entitlement engine generates the following financial components from the two case decisions created from the sample data:
