PVM Policy Import

Overview

The PVM Policy Import uses a single fleet file. Each row represents one policy record. Rows are validated, transformed, grouped by VRM, and then imported to stock in Firestore through the policy import pipeline.

Key Behaviours

1. PVM import uses only one file (no benefits file).
2. One row represents one policy.
3. subCustomerId is matched from lease sub-customers by location == customerAccountNumber.
4. startDate, issueDate, purchaseDate, motDue, and dateOfFirstRegistration are normalized to ISO dates.
5. endDate is derived from startDate + period months - 1 day.
6. Rows with endDate in the past are skipped during validation (SKIPPED log).
7. If multiple rows exist for the same VRM, they are aggregated into one vehicle with multiple policies.
8. Delta import (reimportAll = false) imports only changed/new rows by hash comparison.
9. If reimportAll is enabled, all rows from merged output are imported.
10. If shouldTerminate is enabled, vehicles missing from the latest raw file can be marked terminated.
