How do I increase the list of available frequency options for contract requests?
Question

When I create a contract request, how do I increase the list of available options for Fixed and Recurring Fees pricing term frequency or the Forecasted Spend frequency?

Right now only monthly recurrences are available.

Answer

First, create a CSV file containing the following:

UTF-8
UniqueName,Name,Category,Description
DAY,day,true,1,day
WEE,week,true,1,week
W4,two week,true,1,two week
MON,month,true,1,month
QAN,quarter (of a year),true,1,quarter (of a year)

ANN,year,true,1,year
