Joint life and last survivor option (JL&S)

 
In Canada, a pension plan provision which provides for the continuation of pension benefits to the spouse of a retired plan participant after the death of the participant. The survivor's benefits, which usually are not as large as the original benefits, continue until the death of the spouse.

JOURNAL VOUCHERS & CASH DISBURSEMENTS (Table: GENACCTRN)

 
Journal Vouchers: This screen is used to process transactions that affect the General Ledger but are not handled by existing processes. For example the allocation of money received to a certain ledger account. The system expects the Journal Voucher Transaction to control to 0. Put simply, the amount received must equal the total amounts allocated to the various accounts for each transaction. For example: A/C AMOUNT ABC1 150 ABC2 -150 Cash Disbusements: This screen also handles allocation of money to various Ledger Accounts. Unlike the Journal Voucher Screen, Cash Disbursement transactions do not have to control to 0. The system will assume the destination account and debit that account automatically to balance the transaction. This screen may be used to process ad-hoc agent payments for example. In addition, both the Cash Disbursement and Journal Voucher Screens allow the user to nominate specific ledger accounts and/or the plan code (allowing the posting to plan level accounts), policy/certificate number, the agent (to whom the transaction relates) and whether this transaction pertains to writing, override or renewal commission.
