The business object contains the configuration data for a rate table.
Rates are values that can vary over time. An example of a rate would be
the gross income and net income limits based on the number of people in a
household. Rate tables are used to maintain these rates.
Note: The following special behaviour applies
to a rate table business object: When using CER rule sets, certain changes
to the system can cause widespread recalculations (e.g. case
reassessments) to occur. This is due to the way in which data is fed into,
and stored for CER rule sets, and how this gets reorganized to ensure it
always reflects the latest data and configurations in the system. As a
result, when transporting a mix of object types, where some require
publishing, we recommend that the following object types get published in
this order: Rate Table, CER Data Configuration, CER Rule Set and CER
Benefit Product.
The configuration data that is contained within this business object is
stored on the following entities:
- RATEHEADER
- RATEROW
- RATECOLUMN
- RATECELL
