ADJG-RT - This adjustment generation algorithm is used to calculate an adjustment by calling rate application. Rate application returns a total amount and "bill lines" that show how the charge was calculated (these are derived from the rate's rate components). Rate Schedule identifies the rate that's used to calculate the adjustment. This algorithm passes to this rate the adjustment's base amount as a service quantity and the calculation date as the effective date. The service quantity is identified by the Service Quantity Identifier (SQI), Time of Use (TOU) and Unit of Measure (UOM). The next three parameters are used to apply taxes based on a bill-level threshold. If a bill's accumulated tax amount is less than the tax threshold amount defined on the Apply Taxation Threshold pre-bill completion algorithm, then taxes should not be charged. The pre-bill completion algorithm adds the Tax Not Applicable Characteristic to the adjustment. When the adjustment is regenerated to remove taxes, this characteristic is added into the characteristic collection used by rate application so that it is made available to rate component eligibility criteria to skip the tax calculation lines.
