Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a widely recognized and accepted economic indicator for calculating the variation between multiple installments in land agreements is a common practice to account for changes in the cost of living and inflation over time.
Agreements with payments that require multiple instalments spanning several months, years or decades, can now use a pre-configured CPI to maintain the stability of financial arrangements when processing payments.
After configuring a CPI value, it can then be used when effecting a payment to a stakeholder.
