Considering Case Deduction Items

First the active case deduction items are retrieved. Only a case deduction item with an end date after the last paid to date of the case will be considered. If an active deduction has already ended, it will not be used generate financial schedules.

For example, a case which starts on 13th of June 2011 and has an expected end date of 10th July 2011 delivers two components, Income Assistance and Medical Assistance. The case has two nominees Lisa and Paul, but no payments have been issued yet.

Lisa is the default nominee and so is assigned both components from the case start date. Lisa's nominee delivery pattern is 'Weekly by EFT in Advance on a Monday' and applies from the case start date. Paul's nominee delivery pattern is 'Weekly by Check in Advance on a Monday' and also applies from the case start date. Paul is assigned the Income Assistance component from 27th June 2011 (the start of the third week).

The case also has two case deductions specified as follows:

1. A fixed deduction for the amount $12, assigned to nominee Lisa. The deduction starts on 13th of June 2011 and has no end date specified, meaning that it applies until further notice.
2. A variable deduction for 20% against the Income Assistance component. It starts on 20th of June 2011 and has an end date of 5th July 2011.

In this example, both case deduction items will be retrieved and used to generate financial components.
