Overview

The Loan Tape object now includes a new day_of_period field. This field indicates which day of the current billing period a given loan tape snapshot represents, identifying where a loan tape falls within its billing cycle.

Details

• New field: day_of_period
• Type: integer
• Description: The day of the billing period that the loan tape represents. The count begins at the start of the billing period, so the first day of a period is represented as 0.
• day_of_period is populated automatically on every loan tape and increments across the days of a billing period, resetting at the start of each new period.
• Backwards compatibility: This is a purely additive change. No existing fields have been renamed, removed, or changed in behavior. Clients that do not consume day_of_period are unaffected.
