Associating an Algorithm with an Additional Fee Pricing Rule Type

Prerequisites

To associate an algorithm with an additional fee pricing rule type, you should have:

  • An algorithm defined using the C1_​ACCPRIMEM algorithm type.

  • An algorithm defined using the C1_​MEMBGDRV algorithm type.

  • An algorithm defined using the C1-DERSUBTR algorithm type.

  • An algorithm defined using the C1_​TIERPREM algorithm type.

  • An algorithm defined using the C1-FIBCBP algorithm type.

  • An algorithm defined using the C1-BILLRPCR algorithm type.

  • An algorithm defined using the C1-TIERPRFC algorithm type.

  • An algorithm defined using the C1-FICRETBC algorithm type.

Procedure

To associate an algorithm with an additional fee pricing rule type:

  1. Ensure that the Algorithms section is expanded when you are defining or editing the additional fee pricing rule type.

    The Algorithms section contains the following columns in a grid:

    Column Name Column Description Mandatory (Yes or No)
    System Event Used to indicate the system event when you want to invoke the algorithm. The valid values are:

    • Account and Price Item Derivation - Used to derive the account and price item for a membership.

    • Bill Group Derivation - Used to derive the bill group, parent customer, and policy for a membership.

    • Create Subscription Tier - Used to derive the subscription tier for a membership

    • Tier Based Premium Calculation - Used to calculate the COBRA administrative fees for each eligible member person.

    • Fetch Bill Period of Billable Charge of Membership - Used to derive the bill period for an account.

    • Bill Period Time Line Creation - Used to create the SQI based billable charges for each membership and price item combination.

    • Calculate Proration Factor for Tier Based Pricing Rule - Used to prorate the calculated COBRA administrative fees as per the proration factor.

    • Fully Insured Charge Creation for Memberships - Used to create the SQI based billable charges for each membership and price item combination.

    		 Yes
    Note: This field is required when you are associating an algorithm with the additional fee pricing rule type.
    Sequence Used to specify the order in which the algorithms for each system event must be executed. Yes (Conditional)
    Note: This field is required when you are associating an algorithm with the additional fee pricing rule type.
    Algorithm Used to specify the algorithm.
    Note:

    Once you select the system event, the Search (The Search Icon) icon appears corresponding to the Algorithm field. On clicking the Search (The Search Icon) icon, the Algorithm Search window appears.

    On specifying the algorithm, the description of the algorithm appears corresponding to the Algorithm field.

    		 Yes (Conditional)
    Note: This field is required when you are associating an algorithm with the additional fee pricing rule type.
  2. Enter the following details in the Algorithms section:
    System Event Algorithm Algorithm Type Description
    Account and Price Item Derivation C1_​ACCPRIMEM C1_​ACCPRIMEM Account and PriceItem Derivation for Membership
    Bill Group Derivation C1_​MEMBGDRV C1_​MEMBGDRV Bill Group Derivation for Membership
    Derive Subscription Tier for Membership C1-DERSUBTR C1-DERSUBTR Create Subscription Tier
    Pricing Rule Type Premium Calculation C1_​TIERPREM C1_​TIERPREM Tier Based Premium Calculation
    Pricing Rule BC Creation Pre Processing C1-FIBCBP C1-FIBCBP Fetch Bill Period of Billable Charge of Membership
    Account and Price Item Derivation Post-Processing C1-BILLRPCR C1-BILLRPCR Bill Period Time Line Creation
    Calculate Proration Factor for Tier Based Pricing Rule C1-TIERPRFC C1-TIERPRFC Calculate Proration Factor for Tier Based Pricing Rule
    Pricing Rule Billable Charge Creation C1-FICRETBC C1-FICRETBC Pass Through Billable Charge Creation
  3. If you want to associate more than one algorithm with the additional fee pricing rule type, click the Add (The Add Icon) icon and then repeat step 2.
    Note: However, if you want to disassociate an algorithm from the additional fee pricing rule type, click the Delete (The Delete Icon) icon corresponding to the algorithm.
  4. Click Save.
    The algorithms are associated with the additional fee pricing rule type.
