Initial Investments

When the acceptance fees on the investment amount for new beneficiaries are calculated, the expense rule for which the FORMULA APPLIED TO is INITIAL INV AMT for the benefit membership group to which the member is linked will be read.

 

The MEMINVADMFEE business transactions with the expense type to which the expense rule is linked, will be created.

 

Note:

Currently the fee is calculated using the expenses rule for the membership group to which the member is linked.  This means that a fee will be calculated for every expense rule linked to the membership group.  It is necessary for some fees to be calculated via expenses billing, and therefore it is necessary to be able to identify those to be used when the initial fee is calculated.
