# clsActiveBenefitSchedule

Represents an active claim benefit payment schedule, including remaining and released payment counts, next issue date, and stop-task information. `ProcessBenefitPayment` updates the schedule for a claim and can surface deleted or released-payment review states.

## Purpose
- Exposes the identifiers, payment counts, next issue date, and status values for an active benefit schedule.
- Processes benefit payments for a claim based on the calling application and function.
- Produces task text and stop status information when the schedule is deleted or requires review.

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Claim`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Business.Claim`
