To set up a $20.00 per day rate for Normal RV sites:
1. Click Add rate definition.
2. Enter "Basic daily rate, Normal RV" in the Description field.
3. Click the Charge button.
4. Select (click on) "Daily Rate" from the drop-down category list.
5. Press the Tab key to change to the Description field, and change it if you want (e.g. "Normal RV, daily"). You can just start typing to replace it entirely, or press F2 to enter editing mode. The Description is what will show on the customer's receipt.
6. Press the Tab key twice to get to the Each field (no Qty is necessary).
7. Enter the daily amount, not including taxes, for instance "20". No dollar sign or decimals are needed (assuming it's a round dollar amount)
8. Press the Tab key to accept the amount.
9. Check the boxes for one or more taxes under Auto-add tax, if they apply.
10. Select "Days" from the drop-down list after Rate is per 1 (# of).
11. Verify that the Resv Types shown is "Normal, Group, Monthly" and that the boxes are checked by Multiply by # periods and Multiply by # sites. These are the defaults and will probably be correct unless you have special cases.
12. Click the Site Types button, select "Normal RV" from the list, and click OK.
13. Click the Save button -- you're done with your first rate!
This shows how to set up a rate for a single site type, "Normal RV". You probably need to set up separate rate definitions for each of your site types, or at least each group of site types for which you charge one rate (if you charge the same for 2 or more types, then simply include all of those types in step 12 above). Repeat each of the steps above for each of your site types or rate groupings. This can quickly turn into a large list of rates, but that's normal. It's tedious, but not difficult -- especially using the Copy function as described in the other examples.
