Added Years

This field is used to define the number of Added Years either where these are fixed for all members or a member specific amount. To enable it ensure the Start Date for this slice is blank. Added Years might have arisen from an Augmentation exercise or a Transfer-In to the scheme.

If the number of Added Years granted is the same for all members, enter the number of years granted in years (and part) years i.e. for 5 years and 6 months enter 5.5.

If the number of years varies per member, then select from the drop-down list the data item containing the appropriate data. The data item should contain the number of complete (and part) years granted to each member.

Note, the data should be in terms of years (or fractions of years). If you have the augmentation in months then this should be amended as part of a pre-process using the 'Input File Editor Calculator'.
