<...
id=" xsd:ID [0..1]">
<periodMultiplier> xsd:integer </periodMultiplier> [1]

'A time period multiplier, e.g. 1, 2 or 3 etc. A negative value can be used when specifying an offset relative to another date, e.g. -2 days. If the period value is T (Term) then periodMultiplier must contain the value 1.'

<period> PeriodEnum </period> [1]

'A time period, e.g. a day, week, month, year or term of the stream. If the periodMultiplier value is 0 (zero) then period must contain the value D (day).'

<dayType> DayTypeEnum </dayType> [0..1]

'In the case of an offset specified as a number of days, this element defines whether consideration is given as to whether a day is a good business day or not. If a day type of business days is specified then non-business days are ignored when calculating the offset. The financial business centers to use for determination of business days are implied by the context in which this element is used. This element must only be included when the offset is specified as a number of days. If the offset is zero days then the dayType element should not be included.'

<businessDayConvention> BusinessDayConventionEnum </businessDayConvention> [1]

'The convention for adjusting a date if it would otherwise fall on a day that is not a business day.'

<sequence> xsd:positiveInteger </sequence> [0..1]

'DEPRECATED Sequence in which the reference to the time period multiplier should be applied.'
