Account and Price Item Derivation for Membership

A new algorithm type named C1_​ACCPRIMEM is added in this release. You need to attach an algorithm created using the C1_​ACCPRIMEM algorithm type to the Account and Price Item Derivation system event in a pricing rule type where the category is set to Age Based, Tier Based, or Pass-Through Billable Charge.

This algorithm fetches the effective pricing rule for each price item specified in the pricing rule type on the effective date. It first searches for effective pricing rules on the policy plan to which the membership belongs. If the system does not find any effective pricing rule for a price item on the policy plan, it inherits the effective pricing rule for the price item from the parent customer level. The system then derives the account with a particular invoice type (to which a price item must be billed) based on the priority which is defined for the respective price item in the pricing rule type. Once the account is derived, the system then checks whether the account has one active contract of the contract type which is associated with the price item. If so, it fetches the contract for further processing. If the system could not derive the effective pricing rule for any price item or if the account or active contract for the account could not be derived, the status of the record is changed to Error (E) in the CI_​REPRC_​ENTITY_​DTL table.
