Goal

CCB has, as part of the bill generation, Bill Segments, and then within each Bill Segment there are Calc Lines, which detail the charges being made.
Both Bill Segments and Calc Lines have a Start Date and an End Date.
Base CC&B will, in certain circumstances have overlapping Bill Segment dates from one bill to the next, i.e. the Bill Segment Start Date will be the same as the Bill Segment End Date from the previous bill, meaning it looks like the Bill Segment has started a day early.
As a result of this, for the bill period user now use the earliest Calc Line Start Date as the bill period start and the latest Calc Line End Date as the bill period end date, and these dates to calculate the number of days in the bill period.
And, based on the way the system works, the Bill Segment Start Date should either match the Calc Line Start Date, or it should be 1 day earlier. The Bill Segment Start Date should match the Calc Line Start Date.
