A Logging Period defines a segment of time.
When working opportunity transactions are recorded in buckets, logging periods sort the transactions into segments. For example, rules target buckets to sort candidates on an Overtime List.
Logging periods consists of:
Period Start - the start of a segment. Typically, the first day of a calendar or fiscal year.
Period - defines the duration of each segment in months.
Period in Days - defines the duration of each segment in days.
Recalculate - segments working opportunity transactions as defined by period parameters within a bucket and behavior parameters associated within that bucket.
Buckets must be recalculated when field parameters in either a bucket or behavior change.
