Oracle® Insurance Rules Palette 10.1.2.0 E59346-01

GainLossCalculation Rule

This rule is usually configured at the plan level or the transaction level. Gain/loss is the gain or loss incurred by a company when a financial activity buys and/or sells variable fund units. This rule determines whether or not the system should calculate Gain/Loss for back-dated activities. For example, if an activity was processed on a date that is a couple of days after the effective date of the activity, then the difference in the unit price would be calculated as a gain or loss to the company.

There are two columns in the AsValuation table that are used to store Gain/Loss information.

• ValuationGainLoss: ValuationGainLoss is populated during forward activity processing. 

• GainLossOnShadow: GainLossOnShadow is populated when a financial activity is reversed.
