The Rates Management window, located in Administration > Moveware Setup > Rates Management, is a repository of all cost rates and sell rates in the system. Rates can be added or edited directly in the Rates Management screen, individually or in bulk. Rates can be based on factors such as the Volume/Weight, Distance, Origin/Destination, Branch, and Customer. Rates can then be used to automate the calculation of Costs or Sell prices.

Rates can be applied in several ways:

• Supplier/Creditor Products (for line items on Job Costing or Purchases)
• Job/Removal Products (for Invoices)
• Inventory items (cost rates for packing material , for instance)
• Employees (hourly cost or sell rates)
• Vehicles (hourly or daily cost or sell rates)

Update or Import Rates in Bulk: Use an Excel file to import a large quantity of rates at once. Or, use the Update Rates tool to modify existing rates. Rates can also be exported out of Moveware onto an Excel file.
