If a permanent resident, or just a booking that needed a "Special Alternative Rate" for their hire, you would have to create a Site Type code specifically for the Alternate Rate. Not so anymore.


You can create a special Alternative Rate for any booking now,but mostly it will be useful when creating a new booking for a permanent resident or long term resident.



New XX rate code.


The New Rate Code is always called XX ,and the site booking number is tagged along with the XX code, to make sure that the rate is unique.

The Rate code is created in the Extended Booking Details page under  



Extended Booking Details





Create an XX Rate


Follow steps 1 to 4


Set the daily Rate and the X Rate (Weekly if XDays = 7)



Do the same  for the Cincessional rate.


Leave the Start and End date blank! (Use ctrl Y) to erase field if necessary)


The XX Rate follows the normal way Rates are used to calculate a charge based on testing every dat of the period being charged for.


I there is a Rate increase, you can highlight the XX rate and repeat the creation of more XX rates for the client, setting dates for the start and end date for the

commencement of the new charge.


Don't forget to click on Save Changes Button.


Note: You may have to go out of the Extended booking details and back in again to see the changes.







When a tenant checks out, the rate stays on file. You can manually delete the rate from the booking or use File Maintenance - Site Rates, to delete



Note: The charge lines must always be completed by entering through to the end of the line. If you pause at the Debits Column, the balance will not
