In Simulation Tool, price plans and costs can share the following objects:
A pricing macro is a tool that you can use to optimize the creation and the updating of price plans. A pricing macro is a small reusable module capable of applying a calculation formula. If your price plan has common calculation formulas, you can manage and maintain the price plan more easily by creating pricing macros.
In order to develop and simplify price plans, you sometimes need to create properties that do not exist in the rating context.
A translation table is a tool that is adapted to this type of price plan because a translation table is capable of generating new properties from existing properties and allowing you to search a table of corresponding values.
Tier tables are similar to translation tables. You can create properties that do not exist in the rating context, and you can define a range of different output values for each property.
