Benefit Rules (Benefit Payment Update)

Schemes may use either the standard benefit rules or the flexible benefit rules. Each scheme uses one set of benefit rules. 

 

On the system, schemes are automatically linked to one set of rules or the other.  

 

When using these notes, please be aware that the functionality and screens displayed for each set of rules may differ depending on which set of rules is used by the scheme that you are working on. 

 

Where screens differ, the menu has been split into standard (STD) and flexible (FLEX) in order to indicate this difference.

 

When using these notes, please ensure that you always choose the correct set of rules for the scheme that you are working on to avoid confusion.
