Symptoms

On environment running Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management (BRM) 15.0.1.0, given following problematic scenario:

- with virtual time set as 19-sep-2024, two deals are purchased for existing account (/account 461146) which has BDOM set as 1:

   -> a deal containing a product which include a CycleForwardMonthly charge of 300 USD; as a result, a balance impact of 120 USD corresponding to "19-sep 1-oct" interval is created

   -> a deal containing a 50% discount to be applied on CycleForwardMonthly charges

- following PIN_FLD_OVERRIDE_DISCOUNTS array is present in op_subscription_purchase_deal input flist

- input flist of op_rate_and_discount_event executed during discount purchase contains PIN_FLD_DISCOUNT_DATA with two entries:

   -> one for "19-sep-2024 00:00:00 to 30-sep-2024 00:00:00" (which contains PIN_FLD_PRICE_TAGS ARRAY)
   -> 2nd one for "30-sep-2024 00:00:00 to 01-oct-2024 00:00:00" (which DOES NOT contain PIN_FLD_PRICE_TAGS ARRAY)

- in output flist of op_rate_and_discount_event a balance impact of -55 USD applied for a quantity of 110 :

0 PIN_FLD_BAL_IMPACTS ARRAY [1] allocated 20, used 16

1 PIN_FLD_QUANTITY DECIMAL [0] 110.000000000004
1 PIN_FLD_IMPACT_TYPE ENUM [0] 128

It is expected a total discount of 60 USD will be applied, as this is correct value of 50% from 120 USD.
