Looking amazing!!! Few comments

• I like the helper text. Could you add something along the lines of: "The device will stay owned by the service provider and no unlock tokens are send to the customer" Making clear that we won't generate unlock tokens?
• I find the Minimum Payable Amount (access to the system for a day) field confusing. Could you try to clarify whether this field is given in Money or in days? For example, let's say rate per day = $10, and the minimum would be 3 days = $30. What should I enter as a user?
• For EaaS, can we adapt this view:

to display information about the rates? I.e. what one day costs

• The Get Payment button is grayed out when I'm running it locally

• This is a more conception thought: EaaS and Meter Tariffs are extremely similar. Have we considered to maybe combine them? A thought could be to let users define a EaaSTariff and then, in the EaaS dialog just select the corresponding EaaSTariff. I assume companies would have very similar tariffs for all of their customers. But this could also be a future improvement.

@dmohns you should get a different view from what showed on your screenshot. Did you run the latests tenant migration?

I will address the top comments above and any other comment you may have after running the latest frontend view.

Do you mind creating this as an issue? I think it will be a good improvement to make once we get the EaaS payment plan working.

Done here: #1423

Hey @beesaferoot

Nice, pulling the latest changes fixes the UI. Looks perfect now 👌

One more follow up comment: Could we try to make the distinction between down payment and EaaS rate more clear? For example in all of the below places

The SoldAppliance detail page:

Transaction Overview:

Even on Database level:

EaaS rates are not really deferred payment, hence we shouldn't track them as such. If possible, we could have down_payment for the down payment. eaas_rate (or maybe a better name).

I assumed I pushed the change. Sorry.

Looks good 👍

Any chance we can get to show Down Payment vs EaaS rate here:

Slight inconsistency:

Could you make this appear consistent to how it's displayed on Transaction page?
