Definition

Determines how the control predicate operates in individual cases.

Use

The control predicate has the following modes:

  • Normal

    The control predicate checks whether the claim handler has already processed the related task.

    If the claim handler has not yet processed the task, the abnormal issue is calculated and the result is returned by the control predicate.

    If the claim handler has already processed the task, the abnormal issue is not calculated and the result returned by the control predicate is FALSE. The system does not display the task in the Pending Tasks section.

  • Suppress calculation and result

    In this mode the system provides another parameter (Control Predicate: Suppress Check on Abnormal Issues) in which you can enter a Boolean expression.

    • If you enter an expression in this parameter(Control Predicate: Suppress Check on Abnormal Issues), this expression is always calculated.
      • If the expression delivers the value TRUE, the calculation of the abnormal issue is suppressed. The control predicate itself then always returns the value FALSE. The task is not displayed in the Pending Tasks section.
      If the expression returns the value FALSE, the control predicate operates in the same way as in Normal mode.
    • If you do not enter any expression in this parameter (Control Predicate: Suppress Check on Abnormal Issues), the control predicate also operates in the same way as in Normal mode.
  • Enforce calculation and suppress result

    In this mode the same conditions as for Suppress calculation and result mode apply, with the following exception:

    If the parameter Control Predicate: Suppress Check on Certain Abnormal Issues delivers the value TRUE, the abnormal issue is calculated nonetheless. However, the result is discarded and has no effect on the control predicate. This means that the control predicate delivers the value FALSE.

  • Enforce calculation

    In this mode the same conditions as for Normal mode apply, with the following exception:

    The abnormal issue is always calculated, even if the claim handler has already processed the task. The result is returned by the control predicate. The implicit action is always executed.
