If a buyer fails to follow eBay policy guidelines for an auction, they may incur a buyer violation report on their account. The Period and Count elements allow a seller to specify that only buyers with a specified number of buyer violation reports within a given period of time can bid on their item. If a buyer has more buyer violation reports than specified within these limits, the buyer can not bid on this item. The Period is the past number of days (last 60 days, last 180 days, etc.) within which the buyer violation reports are calculated. Used with Count.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use Period.
