How to add escalation

Escalation grows a definition's amount over time, so a rising rent or subscription is one definition, not twelve amounts.

  1. On the definition, set the escalation type: a percentage (for example 3% a year) or a fixed step amount.
  2. Set the frequency in months (12 = annually) and the anchor date increases are measured from.
  3. Generate across more than one escalation period and watch the amount step up on the anniversary.
