This management setting is only displayed if Rental Service Available is turned on at your location and Enable Rates Charges is selected within the Agreement Types setting.
If your location offers a rental service and retail rates, use this setting to create Rate Codes and hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly rates to be associated with models and made available on new rental appointments and rental agreements. Note that selecting a rate is required when creating Rental appointments and agreements. See "Rates, Charges, Fees & Taxes Setup" for more information.
Expose rental rates within a Rate Code
Note: To facilitate an upcoming reservation booking module, when the Expose Externally setting is turned on for your location by TSD, an Expose option may be visible for Rental rates within the Rental Rate Setup setting, and an Expose Ext option may be visible for fees within the Fees Setup setting. These settings are not yet available for use. Stay tuned and check out "What's New in TSD DEALER?" to keep up-to-date about new features.
For rental rates only, when the Expose Externally setting is turned on for your location by TSD, you can choose to expose rental rates within a single Rate Code per location by selecting the Expose option. "Rates Exposed" is displayed when a Rate Code has exposed rates (
).
Once you expose a rate record and save your changes, the following occurs:
- any previously-exposed rates within another Rate Code become unexposed. A message is displayed, at save: "This action will set exposure off on all Rate Codes, do you wish to continue?"
- If you've cleared the Expose option on all rate records within the Rate Code, a message is displayed, at save: "At least one rate record should be exposed, this action will unexpose the Rate Code, do you wish to continue?"
- When selecting a rate on an appointment or agreement in TSD DEALER, a message is displayed that the Rate Code is currently exposed.
