When the Beneficiaries are captured via the BENEFICIARY Update Type, the system will read the BENEFICIARY PER Scheme Parameter, or if not found the BENEFICIARY PER Territory Parameter for the applicable Territory, and if the value for Description is EQUAL the system will enable the Beneficiaries to be captured without a value for Percentage.

Benefit Payment Update Type: Beneficiaries
When the BENEFICIARY Update Type is closed, the system will calculate the Percentage per Beneficiary for which the Status is null by dividing 100 by the number of Beneficiaries for which the Status is null and create the Beneficiary records with a value for Percentage equal to the value calculated without a value for Status.
If the value for Description on the BENEFICIARY PER Scheme or Territory Parameter is not EQUAL or a BENEFICIARY PER Scheme or Territory Parameter is not found processing will be as per current functionality.
