Leap years not considered #485

Closed Anveizaga closed 3 years ago

Anveizaga commented 3 years ago

The assessment period can be selected through default calenders. Unfortunately leap years, which should have 366 days, have 365 days according to the ECAM. This could affect the results when calculating per year.

Dear @Anveizaga,

In theory, ecam treats leap years correctly. image

Can you send an example where this is not calculated correctly? Thanks!

Hola @holalluis, thank you for answer, I think I have a confusion there because 1 year, for some people (including me) would be considered from 01/01/2021 to 31/12/2021, but for other people exactly like you showed in the image. We will have to explain this better in the manual. So I will close this comment and thank you for your fast reply! Best, Adriana

I think the easiest way to explain it is to consider that the last day is not included in the assessment period
