The distributions can be based on outstanding or settled shares and the system also supports breakage and mil rate adjustments. The system calculates and stores dividend rates in the NAV table. For daily distributions, the system calculates, stores, and reports a daily yield, 7 day effective yield, 7 day average yield, 30 day effective yield, and 30 day average yield.
Fixed rate distributions distribute using a constant rate over a definite period of time. The distributions can be based on outstanding or settled shares. The system stores the fixed rates by fund, class, and effective date in the fixed rate distribution tables, and posts the distributions based on the share election and stored rates. You can manually add and maintain fixed rate distributions. See the Manage Fixed Fund Distributions section for more information.
