Interval Data is Stored in Data Sets

Interval data in the system will have many different origins.

  • It may be contract-related data, which is setup at the beginning of the contract or contract year
  • It may be data, which is interfaced from an external source periodically

Regardless of the origin of the data, all data will have similar characteristics

  • Data will be received by the system, or created by the system periodically. The system will store whatever new data needs to be stored.
  • The period represented by the batch of new data is variable.
  • New data may be an update to previously received data
