Creating Retroactive Tier Member Attributes

The tier class qualifying period member attributes are used to specify the current and previous qualifying period of a member for a particular tier class. These attributes determine whether or not retroactive tier logic must apply to a transaction.

Every tier class that is eligible for retroactive tier changes needs the following three member attributes defined:

  • TC1 Previous QP Start. For tier class 1, this attribute is the start date of the previous qualifying period.

  • TC1 Current QP Start. For tier class 1, this attribute is the start date of the current qualifying period.

  • TC1 Current QP End. For tier class 1, this attribute is the end date of the current qualifying period.
