Identifies the type of the adjusted NAV expense rule. If you add multiple rows for the same rule, this field shows the value you selected for the first row. Options include:

• Ledger Based. A ledger based adjusted NAV expense rule uses a starting point of 0 (zero) for calculating the variable expense's underlying NAV component, and then adds in or subtracts the net amount associated with the rule criteria. That is, the system uses the NAV amount associated with the rule in place of the underlying NAV amount in calculations. If you select this value, you can set the Include/Exclude Component field to Include Item or to Exclude Item. 
• NAV. A NAV based adjusted NAV expense rule uses the underlying NAV component's value as the starting point for calculating the variable expense's underlying NAV component, and then subtracts the total amount associated with the rule criteria from the underlying NAV amount used in the variable expense setup. If you select this value, the Include/Exclude Component field displays a value of Exclude Item. 
• Ledger Activity. A ledger activity based NAV expense rule allows you to specify a of range of ledger accounts for use with calculating tax expense accruals for variable expenses. If you select this value, the Include/Exclude Component field displays a value of Include Item.
