About Assigning Adjusted NAV Rules to Variable Expenses

You can use adjusted NAV expense rules in conjunction with certain NAV components. When you assign an adjusted NAV expense rule to a variable group expense: 

• You must assign an adjusted NAV expense rule to a variable group expense that has an underlying NAV component of Ledger Based. You must select an adjusted NAV expense rule with a rule type of Ledger Based.
• You can assign an adjusted NAV expense rule to a variable group expense that has an underlying dollar-based NAV component of Prior Day Total Net Assets, Adjusted Net Assets, Average Net Assets. 
• You cannot assign an adjusted NAV expense rule to a variable group expense that has an underlying NAV component of Current Date Outstanding Share, Current Day Settled Shares, or User Defined NAV. 

Assign an Adjusted NAV Expense Rule When You Create a Variable Group Expense

In the Create Group Expense panel, when you create a variable group expense, you can assign an adjusted NAV expense rule to a group variable expense for a TF share class. 

To assign an adjusted NAV expense rule to a variable expense:

1. In Accounting Center, in the left navigation pane, click Setup > Expense > Group Expense > Create Group Expense.
   In the Create Group Expense wizard, you see the Step 1: Setup Group Expense Details panel. This step allows you to add a new group expense or allows you to add one or more group level expense rules for an existing group expense.

   Ensure you set the Group Expense Type to Variable Group Expense if you plan to assign an adjusted NAV expense rule. 
3. Click Next.
   The system saves the group level expense information. You see Step 2: Add Funds to Group Expense in the Create Group Expense panel.
4. Complete the options in the Step 2: Add Funds to Group Expense section.
   This step allows you to add one or more participant entities to the group expense and define participant level expense rules. After you select a participant entity, you can specify the expense end date and NAV component information. For variable group expenses, you can additionally identify a waiver account.
5. In the Adjusted NAV Expense Rule Name field, select the adjusted NAV expense rule for the participant level expense rule. 
   You can assign a rule only if the Share Class value is TF, and the NAV Component value is Prior Day Total Net Assets, Adjusted Net Assets, Average Net Assets., or Ledger Based NAV. If it is Ledger Based NAV, you must select an adjusted NAV expense rule with a Ledger Based rule type.

   You are ready to process the expense accruals for the entities that participate in the group expense by running the accrual process. For more information, see Run Expense Accruals.
