Sets the "due_date" for a Request Item (RITM) based on delivery time set on catalog item record.
Follows the below step to calculate and set value:
1) Reading the delivery time (in days) from the associated Catalog Item
2) Parsing the days component from the display value (e.g. "5 Days" - 5).
3) Adding those days to the record's creation date ("sys_created_on").
4) Writing the calculated date to "due_date".
Sets the "due_date" on a Request with associated RITM with the highest "due_date". Follows the below steps to calculate and set the field: 1) Finding the associated RITM with the highest "due_date". 2) Assigning the Request's "due_date" to match that RITM's "due_date".

A BR calculating due date is actually not enhancing SLA tracking. As you are not using SLA's in your code, it has a risk of even conflicting with OOTB SLA functionality

PR Description:
Created business rules to set due dates on Requested Items (RITMs) and Requests based on the delivery time defined in catalog items.
Key Changes (Business Rules):
Set Due Date on RITM : A Before Business Rule on the sc_req_item table calculates and sets the due date by adding the catalog item's delivery time to the current date.
Set Due Date on Request : A Before Business Rule on the sc_request table sets the due date as the latest due date among all associated RITMs.
Note: Keeping both files in same sub-folder as these are related with each other.
