Select the interest calculation method. The method is the basis for calculating the interest earned on the deposit.
The possible values are:
30/360 - To get the monthly interest rate, divide the annual interest rate by 360 and multiply it by 30. (By assuming that there are 360 days in a year with 30 days in each month.)
30/365 - To get the monthly interest rate, divide the interest rate by 365 and multiply by 30. (By assuming that there are 365 days in a year with 30 days in each month.)
ACT/360 - To get the monthly interest rate, divide the interest rate by 360 and multiply it by the actual number of days in a month. (By assuming that there are 360 days in a year.)
ACT/365 - To get the monthly interest rate, divide the interest rate by 365 and multiply it by the actual number of days in a month.
See the table below for the difference in the interest earned for the day count conventions.

Select the interest condition applied to the single period or repeating period range.
The possible values are:
Fixed period - This means that the interest conditions are applied for a fixed period of time. For example, 6 months or 5 years.

If the customer chooses to create a contract for 5 months, this condition is applied to the deposit contract.
