How do I add a beneficiary's entitlement?

A step by step guide on how to add a beneficiary's entitlement

  • Go to the People & beneficiaries section 

  • Click Add person or Add organisation 

  • If you choose that the person or organisation has a role of beneficiary, a section for Entitlement will appear

  • This section is not mandatory and can be left blank
  • If the user decides to enter information, they can choose to add either Residuary, Pecuniary or both 

💁Only one Residuary type can be applied to all beneficiaries on a case

⭐If a Residuary type is selected and then a user attempts to select a different type for another beneficiary, an error message will appear 

 👌If a beneficiary is designated as the Sole residuary beneficiary, the residuary entitlement section will not be available for any other beneficiaries

  • For Residuary, select the type
    • If Percentage is chosen, the user can then add in the percentage value 
    • If Share is chosen, the user can then add in the share value 
    • If Equal is chosen, no further information is needed 
    • If Sole is chosen, no further information is needed 

  • For Pecuniary, add a value

  • Click Save person
