Restricted Edit Rental Rates

Use this program to:

View and edit rate records that have a Rate Set that matches the login location. (Note: the RULES are not shown)

The actions permitted depend on whether or not the rate is restricted. A 'restricted' rate is one that has a "C" in the "Corp. Std." (corporate standard) field of the rules record.

Unrestricted Rates:

Rates that are unrestricted can be brought up in this program and the following actions are allowed:

Create a new version (new effective date) with new rates on the second page.

Edit the termination date and comment fields on existing rates.

User tip: If a rule change is needed, a user with access to Edit Local Rates or Edit Rental Rules/Rates program must make that change.

Restricted Rates:

Rates that are restricted (Corp Standard field = C), can only be viewed. They cannot be edited and cannot be cloned.
User tip: If a rule change is needed, a user with access to the standard Edit Rental Rules/Rates program must make that change.

To access the program, type RATESR (RET) at any menu "OPTION:" field or the appropriate number on the Rate Control Files Menu. The screen will then display:
