# ValuesScreen

ValuesScreen business rule is configured at the plan level. This rule is used with the PolicyValues business rule to display the policy's values on the Values screen (invoked by clicking the Values link on the Policy screen). PolicyValues business rule must be configured prior to configuring the ValuesScreen business rule.

ValuesScreen business rule dictates how to display (format) the item/variable (such as currency, text, etc.) on the Values screen whereas the PolicyValues business rule specifies the math variables that are to be calculated and displayed on the Values screen.

In addition, the ValuesScreen business rule can also perform the following:

- display the valuation date (from PolicyValues) on the Values screen (policy level).

- process the validations on the Values screen.

- display the fund details and pie charts for allocations and assets.
