In this IMG activity, you set up the hierarchical structure of your fee calculation procedure. The purpose of this IMG activity is to mathematically link several pricing procedures within a fee calculation procedure.

To do so, define the individual calculation steps and assign these a pricing procedure or a sub-step. You also specify a fee calculation rule for each calculation step or sub-step. For each assigned pricing procedure, you define the calculation object.

You can edit the hierarchical structure in the table view as well as in tree structure maintenance.

Requirements

You defined the required fee calculation procedures in the previous IMG activity.

Recommendation

When building complex hierarchical structures, first create a draft before creating the actual structure in the system.

Activities

  1. Choose a fee calculation procedure.
  2. Define a calculation step and assign it a step element and a calculation rule. The remaining procedure depends on the assigned step element:
    • Sub-step
      • First define the required fee calculation steps and then assign these steps as sub-steps in the Assign Step Elements dialog.
    • Fee calculation procedure
      • In the Assign Step Elements dialog, assign the required pricing procedure and define the fee calculation object.

If you set up the hierarchical structure using tree structure maintenance, the assignment of sub-steps is somewhat easier because you can define these when you assign them.

Example

You have defined the following pricing procedure:

Pricing procedure    Description

AAAA01    Registration fee

BBBB02    Program-based tuition fee

CCCC03    Module-based tuition fee

DDDD04    Administrative fee

You define fee calculation procedure XYZ001 which should consist of the following three calculation steps:

  • Step 000: Add sub-steps 010 and 020
  • Sub-step 010: Compare the program-based tuition fee with the module-based tuition fee and use the higher value
  • Sub-step 020: Add the registration fee and the surcharge for late registration

You define the following calculation steps for fee calculation procedure XYZ001:

Step    Consists of     Elements     Calculation rule

000    Sub-step     010, 020     Add

010    Pricing procedure     BBBB02, CCCC03    Maximum

020    Pricing procedure     AAAA01, DDDD04    Add

A student registers for a program and for several modules. You run fee calculation for this student. From the pricing procedures, the system provides the following interim results:

  • The program-based tuition fee is 200 UNI.
  • The module-based tuition fee is 250 UNI.
  • The surcharge for late registration is 20 UNI.
  • The registration fee is 40 UNI.

In this case, the system processes fee calculation procedure XYZ001 as follows:

  • Step 010: Compare 200 UNI and 250 UNI

    The tuition fee for the student is 250 UNI.

  • Step 020: Add 20 UNI and 40 UNI

    The entire registration fee is 60 UNI.

  • Step 000: Add 250 UNI and 60 UNI

    The student has to pay 310 UNI.
