Introduction

The eligibility and entitlement engine creates financial components from the decisions generated by the rules engine. Financial components are created for each case decision objective associated with a case decision. These financial components are schedules of transactions to be realized into actual financial transactions. This chapter demonstrates how the eligibility and entitlement engine creates financial components.

This chapter also demonstrates how the eligibility and entitlement engine creates financial components for deduction items. Financial components created from deduction items are considered secondary financial components. Secondary financial components are related to a primary financial component by the cover period.

Additionally, this chapter demonstrates how the eligibility and entitlement engine handles financial component processing for cases with multiple rules objectives and with multiple nominees. The eligibility and entitlement engine creates financial components separately for each case decision objective. The eligibility and entitlement engine also creates financial components on a nominee by nominee basis to accommodate the different nominee delivery patterns.

The final section in this chapter describes the eligibility and entitlement process when the Reassessment Configuration switch is enabled. When this switch is enabled, the eligibility and entitlement engine will pass decision information to the rules engine.
