Parameter Rule

Enter the name of the rule that will determine the quantity/amount that an employee can claim for the reimbursement item, when the combinations of the selected parameters in the multiline are applicable for the reimbursement item.

 

Example: The parameters are “type of city“, “type of room“, and “number of days“. The values applicable for these parameters are given below.

 

Type of city: = “A” class city, “B” class city

 

Type of room = “A/C”, “Non-A/C”

Mapping parameters to a reimbursement item   

When you map one or more parameters to a reimbursement item, it implies that the employees’ eligibility to the item will be influenced by these parameters. Specifically, it will be influenced by these parameters’ values. The parameter values can be Numeric or Character.

Defining Eligibility Rules for Multiple Parameter Value Combinations: Because multiple parameters can be mapped to a reimbursement item, you are to define the eligibility values for each combination of parameter values. The eligibility values are defined through stored procedure rules. For example, you can define a stored procedure rule to the effect that

Define a Rule to Convert Quantity into a Given Currency: Earlier, in the “Create Reimbursement Item” page, you had specified that the eligibility value must be claimed as either Quantity or Amount. If the eligibility value was Quantity, you can now specify a stored procedure rule to convert the quantity to money.   For example, when a consumable item such Petrol is claimed in gallons, you can define one gallon to be equal to $2.
