By linking these transactions, you can track liability across various promotions and partners. You can also create currency subtypes to control which points are accrued or redeemed. Previously, you were able to trace points and create subcurrencies only for currencies with the fixed-duration expiration model. - **[Find and Understand Traceability Settings Easily with Updated Labels](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=release-notes.rn_loyalty_updated_labels.htm&release=262.0.0&type=5)** To improve discoverability and better align with the latest Loyalty Management capabilities, traceability setting names and descriptions have been updated. - **[Define Eligible Activities to Extend Activity-Based Points Validity](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=release-notes.rn_loyalty_eligible_activities_extend_currency_validity.htm&release=262.0.0&type=5)** Specify the eligible activities that extend the point validity of activity-based, redeemable currencies by using journal types and subtypes.

Define reinstatement windows so your customer service representatives can easily reinstate points that expired within a time frame. Define different grace periods and reinstatement windows based on currency type and tier. - **[Validate Loyalty Program Data Integrity](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=release-notes.rn_loyalty_validate_program_data_integrity.htm&release=262.0.0&type=5)** Identify discrepancies in your imported data by running prebuilt Data Processing Engine definitions.
