Symptoms

In Oracle Financial Services Asset Liability Management (ALM) 8.0, when validating Market Value generated by an ALM Process, you see the cash flow engine creates Financial Element (FE) 493 - Discount Factor Term (Days) - in FSI_O_PROCESS_CASH_FLOWS using 366 days in a year for an account that matures in the January or February after a leap year (i.e. Jan 2017 or Feb 2017).

Example:

As of Date: 15-FEB-2017
Maturity Date: 16-FEB-2017

FE 493 = 0.002732 = 1 / 366

You expect ALM to use "365" to calculate FE 493 in a non-leap year.
