How to fill IBR :
IBR setup can be read from right to left. On right we have rate itself. Going left we have Value Date - Most important filter. If IBR with newer (but lower than workdate/date entered in lease) is found that IBR will be taken.
Next is Lease Term. Different IBR can be applied depending on Lease term or in case of modification to IBR - remaining term.
Next is Category - can be based on Lease Category.
Next we have Lease Currency filter.
