Item Consumption Rate — entity reference

One tier of a consumption schedule: a lower and upper consumption bound plus the price that applies inside that band. Subscription usage invoicing walks the tiers in ascending lower-bound order, consuming the usage quantity band by band, charging the tier price once when the tier's pricing method is 'Flat Fee' and price times quantity otherwise, and falling back to the subscription's unit price for any quantity left over past the last tier. The pricing-method field has no seeded picklist, so the exact string 'Flat Fee' has to be typed for flat-fee behaviour.
