Pension journal configuration

You can set a global nominal for all pension schemes. However, this may not be detailed enough. If you enter {pension.override} as the global nominal, pension overrides can be used.

Pension overrides are used when operating more than one pension scheme and want to apply separate nominal mappings for each scheme.

Good to know...

• If either of the name or narrative fields are left blank at the pension level configuration, the output will default return the information for that field at nominal code level.

• There is a token called {Nominal.Code} that allows the user to reference what has been returned in the nominal code field using a single token. This will be utilised primarily in mapped output files.

• When the nominal journal is run it will be returning data from numerous locations into this field.

  In effect it will allow the user to draw the returned value from the resulting fixed mappings and look ups and return the results into a single mapped field.
