  6. Choose either the Rate tab or Step Rate tab to create calculation logic for your fee.
  7. On the selected Rate tab, click New.
  8. In the new window, select a rate by clicking on a radio button.
  9. Depending on your selection, an input field will display in the white area beside the radio buttons.
  10. If using Simple Amount or Rate X Basis, continue on. If you are using a formula see the document Charge Formulas for further help.
  11. For the Simple Amount type in a dollar value. Alternatively, for Rate X Basis select a Rate (dollar amount) and a Basis (what the dollar amount will apply to) and a UOM (Unit of Measure).
    • Example: A charge of $1.00 will apply to the Quantity Each.
  12. Fill in the details that specify who and what the charge will pertain to. If left blank, it will pertain to every transaction of the chosen occurence type. Each available field is an opportunity to restrict what the charge affects.

  15. Move the priority of the charges using the red arrows. Click to highlight a line, then click the directional arrow to change its priority in the list.
