Determine Additional Information That Is Required If A Package Is Selected
During this step, you determine if there's any information that needs to be created when a package is selected that can't be defaulted from its start option. In our example campaign, package 4 (the Multi-Family Home package), also needs to know the number of housing units at the premise (this information is probably needed to calculate a specific charge in the rate). None of the other packages require additional information. The extra field has been appended to our miscellaneous field table.
