Re-allocating total investment amount

This allows for the re-allocation of beneficiary percentages.

 

If the sum of all of the beneficiaries’ Percentage Allocations is equal to 100%, the system will calculate each beneficiary’s allocation amount based on the updated Percentage Allocations. 

 

For each Beneficiary, the system will calculate the difference between the beneficiary’s original allocation amount and the new allocation amount.  Pre-authorised BT’s will be created to adjust the beneficiaries’ investment balances depending on whether the difference is negative or positive.

 

For more information, refer to Processing below.

 

Click  on the JU3EQ Amend Beneficiaries screen.

 

Once the system has finished re-calculating each beneficiary’s allocation amount. the following message will be displayed:

 

Beneficiary re-allocation complete please authorise

 

 

Click  to remove the message. 

 

These re-allocations must now be authorised.

 

Messages

The following messages may be displayed when  is selected on the JU3EQ Amend Beneficiaries screen:

 

If there is nothing to be re-allocated, the following message will be displayed:

 

Nothing to re-allocate for beneficiaries

 

 

If the beneficiary total allocations are not 100%, the following message will be displayed:

 

Beneficiary total allocations are not 100%

 

 

If the existing beneficiary transactions have not been authorised yet, the following message will be displayed:

 

Existing beneficiaries transactions must be authorised before adding new

 

 

If the beneficiary investment balance is insufficient, the following message will be displayed:

 

beneficiary investment balance is insufficient

 

 

In each case, click  to remove the message. 

 

Processing

When  is selected on the JU3EQ Amend Beneficiaries screen, the system will perform the following:

 

Check that the sum of all of the Beneficiaries’ percentages is equal to 100%.

If it is 100%, retrieve the MAINMEMINV BT’s and the MEMBERBONUS BT’s from the INVESTMEMB account for the deceased member to which the Beneficiaries are linked and sum the amounts.

Calculate each Beneficiary’s allocation amount based on the updated Percentages and the sum of the MAINMEMINV and BT’s.

Calculate the difference between the Beneficiaries original allocation amount and the new allocation amount.

Retrieve the BT’s on each Beneficiary’s CONTRIBUTION account and sum the amounts per Beneficiary (this represents the Beneficiary’s original allocation amount).

-   For each Beneficiary, calculate the difference between the Beneficiary’s original allocation amount and the new allocation amount

-   Retrieve the balances for each of the Beneficiaries’ INVESTMEMB accounts.  For each of the Beneficiaries for which BT’s are retrieved from the CONTRIBUTION account, check that the new allocation amount calculated above is greater than or equal to the difference calculated above. 

-   If the new allocation amount is less than the original allocation and the difference between the original allocation amount and the new allocation amount is less than the INVESTMEMB balance for any of the Beneficiaries, the following error message will be displayed:

 

The adjustment for one or more of the beneficiaries’ allocation amount is less than the beneficiary’s investment balance and therefore the allocation cannot be reduced.  Please adjust the allocation percentages.

 

Note:

If no BT’s are retrieved from a Beneficiary’s CONTRIBUTION account then the Beneficiary is one of the new Beneficiaries captured.  This can’t be derived based on the balance on the INVESTMEMB account as a Beneficiary could have been paid out in full and therefore has a      zero balance at the time that the re-allocation is done.

 

If there are no Beneficiaries for which the adjustment is greater than the Beneficiary’s INVESTMEMB account, the system will create the Pre-authorised BT’s to adjust the Beneficiaries’ investment balances depending on whether the difference is negative or positive.

 

Negative

If the difference is negative, i.e. the Beneficiary’s new allocation amount is less than the original allocation amount, the following BT will be created with the Due Date, Transaction Date and Effective Date equal to the current date:

 

BENEFICIARY INV         MEMINVADJNEG       MEMBER      DR INVESTMEMB

BENEFICIARY INV         MEMINVADJNEG       MEMBER      CR CONTRIBUTION

 

Positive

If the difference is positive, i.e. the Beneficiary’s new allocation amount is greater than the original allocation amount, the following BT will be created with the Due Date, Transaction Date and Effective Date equal to the current date:

 

BENEFICIARY INV         MEMINVADJPOS        MEMBER      DR CONTRIBUTION

BENEFICIARY INV         MEMINVADJPOS        MEMBER      CR INVESTMEMB

 

Note:

In most cases the positive adjustments will be for the additional Beneficiaries.  It is unlikely that there will ever be a positive adjustment for an existing Beneficiary as effectively a portion of their investment will be re-allocated to the additional Beneficiaries.

 

If an Initial Payment Percentage or Initial Payment Amount was captured on the Member Details screen for a new Beneficiary, a BT will be created with the following Accounting Activity:

 

BENEFICIARY PMT     INITIALPAYMT MEMBER        DR      BENEFITS

BENEFICIARY PMT     INITIALPAYMT MEMBER        CR      INVESTMEMB

BENEFICIARY PMT     INITIALPAYMT FUND            DR      BENEFITS

BENEFICIARY PMT     INITIALPAYMT FUND            CR      BANK

 

My Work

When the Pre-authorised BT’s have been created successfully, the Activity Name will be updated on the applicable My Work Service Request to AUTH ADD ALLOCS.

 

The Remaining Balance Amount will be apportioned by the system between the other Beneficiaries for which the Balance is not zero, based on their balance and the calculated amount will be displayed in the Amount column for each Beneficiary.

 

The apportionment per beneficiary is calculated as follows:

 

Remaining Balance / Sum of Beneficiaries’ Balances x Beneficiary’s Balance

 

The following pre-authorised BT’s will be created for each Beneficiary for the amount calculated above:

 

BENEFICIARY INV

MEMINVADJPOS

MEMBER

DR

INVESTMEMB

BENEFICIARY INV

MEMINVADJPOS

MEMBER

CR

CONTRIBUTION

Processing

If the tick box next to the Amount of Regular Payment field on the JU3EO Payment Details screen is selected, the system will calculate the regular payment amount based on the Last Monthly Payment Date and the Investment Value.  The system will calculate the number of months from the current date to the Last Monthly Payment Date and divide the Investment Value by the number of months. 

 

When  is selected, the following message will be displayed:

 

The regular payment amount will be changed to the value calculated.  Do you wish to continue?

 

If the YES is selected, the Membership Payment Detail record for the Beneficiary will be updated with the Amount of Regular Payment value and the JU3EQ Amend Beneficiaries screen will be displayed.

 

If the NO button is selected, the Amount of Regular Payment will be reset to the previous value and the following message will be displayed:

 

If the date of the regular payment amount must not change then please tick the box next to the Last Monthly Payment Date.

 

If the tick box next to the Last Monthly Payment Date field is select, the system will calculate the Last Monthly Payment Date based on the Amount of Regular Payment value and the Investment Value.  The system will calculate the number of months for which the regular amount will be paid by dividing the Investment Value by the Amount of Regular Payment value and dividing by 12.  The Last Monthly Payment Date will be determined by adding the number of months to the current date.

 

When  is selected, the following message will be displayed:

 

The date of the last monthly payment will be changed to the date calculated.  Do you wish to continue?

 

If the YES is selected, the system will not update the End Date on the Membership Payment Detail record for the Beneficiary.  The JU3EQ Amend Beneficiaries screen will be displayed

 

If NO button is selected, the value for the Last Monthly Payment Date will be reset to the previous value and the following message will be displayed:

 

If the date of the last monthly payment must not change then please tick the box next to the Amount of Regular Payment.

 

Note:

The calculation of the Amount of Regular Payment or the Date of Last Monthly Payment does not take into account interest added to the Beneficiary’s investment account and therefore are approximate values.  In the monthly payment run, if it is the month of the End Date then the balance on the Beneficiary’s investment account must be paid.

 

The calculation of the Amount of Regular Payment or the Date of Last Monthly Payment also doesn’t take into account any ad hoc payments as these are unpredictable events.  However, the regular payment amount will always be limited to the value in the beneficiary’s investment account and therefore there is no risk of overpayment as the ad hoc payments will reduce the balance in the Beneficiary’s investment account.
