Aim of function
To have the Functional Currency calculated based on the exchange rates found on the date where the Business/Insured Period is created.
Created a new date field on the Insured Period level of a business to capture the creation date of this business/insured period.

This date can be modified manually by selecting the option View FX IP Creation Date option on the Insured Period tab on the business.
When this new Exchange Rate Category (named e.g. IP Creation – Daily Rate) is defined as the rule, then the system will use this Created date on the Insured Period to find the exchange rate for the FC calculation.

SE-5294 - Claim Recovery Calculation Rule for Wavier of Premium Rider Policy' - Heng An Standard Life #
Aim of function
Summary:
A New Claim Recovery Calculation Rule for Wavier of Premium Rider Policy
Description:
Currently, the client only has one claim recovery calculation rule, and this rule is applied to all insurance policies.
Since the claim ACI figure for the wavier of premium rider (WPR) policies are calculated differently from other policies in client's old system (LA), and as a result, the existing claim recovery calculation rule cannot produce the expected result for WPR claims.
Hence, client needs a different calculation rule for WPR claims. Client expects SICS to be able to apply different calculation rules based on the following two new fields they will provide to SICS.
Two new fields client will pass into SICS:
No. Name Expected Value from the Client
1 Claim Percentage 0% ~ 100%, and most of the time will be 100%
2 Claim Type 'T' for regular claim (use the existing claim calculation rule),
'P' for WPR claim (use the new WPR claim calculation rule).
The calculation rule for WPR claims (with the Claim Type of 'P'):
WPR Claim Recovery = Retroceded SAR * Claim Percentage (the new field stated above)

SE-2862 - Improve validation of circular calculations in Multi GAAP - DXC #
Aim of function
When setting up calculation rules in Multi GAAP system parameters, the system has given an error message if you create a rule which will cause circularity in the calculation chain.

Also, there has been no information as to what causes the circularity.
We have changed the error message to a warning, and added some information on which reference and which rule is creating the potential circularity. The rule may be a different rule than the one you try to save, if this refers to an estimation with a rule which already has a potential circularity, as in the example shown below.
