Formula for Calculating Number of Opens

The formula for calculating the total number of RAs opened at a particular location is defined as follows:

  Number of Opens
- Number of Voids
-----------------------
  Total Number of Opens

Voided RAs are processed by the closing location on the voided RA. For example, if an RA opens at location LAX and is scheduled to close at location TUS, when this RA is voided, it will be subtracted from the number of opens at location TUS.

NOTE: The Void RA program sets the closing location of the RA to the current location of the employee processing the void, regardless of how the return location was set when the RA was open.

* This report contains a calculation of rental length called "DBR Days" (or just "Days"). One of two possible formulas are used in CARS+ to calculate this figure. To chose the formula to be used in this as well as over fifty other CARS+ reports, go to Page 5, Field 3 of Edit Miscellaneous Control Fields.
