Pricing Policy types:

  1. Master – Combines all other Pricing Policies in the Workspace. The compilation follows a configured order, and the Master Pricing Policy is mandatory for use in reports to ensure consistent aggregation logic.

  2. Rolled Master – Designed to include rolled prices and FX rates. The rolling method is defined by a dedicated rolling pricing module, allowing dynamic calculation based on available data.

  3. Standard – Applied when prices or rates are manually created or imported. It provides a straightforward structure for static or user-defined pricing.
