Quarterly withdrawal
Works in the same way as the monthly and annual withdrawal but allows the user to enter withdrawals that the customer made on a quarterly basis.
Please note that the Withdrawal adjustment will affect the balance at the point that it occurred. This differs from an Income adjustment which is displayed in the rework, however it does not show on the account until the end, where the total of the incomes are removed from the final balance in the comparison screen.
Set unit value
This adjustment sets the unit value for a given period. Enter both the From and To date (exclusive).
Set unit quantity
Enables the user to set the unit quantity within the system by adding an adjustment on the date that they wish to specify the unit amount from.
Set current position
This adjustment should be used to acknowledge the end position of the fund in question. The ‘From’ date will be the last day of the calculation. The Set Current Position adjustment will override other adjustment (withdrawal or income) on the same day as the position set must be that which is required.
Unit change
This adjustment adds or removes units based on the current unit value. The net effect is an increase or decrease of the balance.
Dividend
Where dividends are required the details on the main screen will filter through into the case. This adjustment allows the user to specify the actual dividend payment amount at a given time. Each dividend must be entered on an individual basis, e.g. one adjustment per payment.
Please note that cases which include dividends require external information to be accessed. Therefore we recommend that delegates attend our Investment Related Training course in order to fully comprehend the capability of the system.
Fixed Rate
A rate adjustment (for interest purposes) may be required for a set period within a calculation therefore this adjustment has been added to allow for that requirement.
Interest Balance Cap
When required (for Credit Card Payment Protection Insurance cases) this adjustment ensures that interest is refunded on the correct amount.
Tax %
Change tax % applied to interest calculations
Annual Dividend %
This adjustment allows a dividend % to be applied on an annual basis. This is based on the fund value.

Monthly accrued fee %
This adjustment calculates a monthly fee based on Tiered percentages, using the previous month’s daily data using the system generator. The adjustment is intended for use purely within the system generator but it will create values in normal use. This adjustment makes the system break periods on a daily basis as it needs daily balances to calculate the monthly accrued fee.
Please note that some compound interest values will not be completely accurate when viewing on screen as this adjustment is for use with the system generator.
