The system allows you to choose between three income strategies, PCLS, UFPLS or Phased Drawdown. If you select PCLS the system will take out the percentage of PCLS specified and remove it from the income calculations.
UFPLS will keep the total plan values invested in the drawdown plan, when income is taken from the drawdown plan 25% of the income withdrawn will be tax free, this will be taken into account when calculating the tax liability.
Phased drawdown allows you to specify the phased period end age, and choose either PCLS or UFPLS for the phased period and remaining term.
