Flagging Promotional Credits in GCP as Promotional Credits instead of falling under the general bucket of credits

Customers like Ulta and others have millions of dollars in Promotional Credits each year.   Currently Cloudability doesn't offer the option to flag these promotional credits as Promotional Credits, rather they fall under the general bucket of Credit under the Transaction Type field.   By adding a field signifying Promotional Credits vs other credits for GCP, this will save the Ulta Team hours per month of manual effort to retrieve the promotional efforts and then we do a lookup or business mapping in TBM Studio or Cloudability respectively.

I've attached an image from Ulta's GCP Portal where the various types of credits are defined.
