Introduction

This setting can allow a charge/discount to change the base rate and allow other pricing rules to apply to this changed rate instead. This setting can be found by clicking on the wrench icon.

This setting only works for the following pricing rule types:

• Animal Weight
  
  
• Number of Animals
  
  
• Number of Additional Animals in Same Lodging
  
  
• Animal Breed
  
  
• Number of Reservations
  
  
• Number of Reservations (location)
  
  
• Animal Age
  
  
• Units of Reservation.
  
  

Example

Your kennel charges boarding by weight. You would like this to become the base rate for each animal and then apply multiple discounts after that rate has changed.

As we can see from the Estimate, the weight rule now changes the Base Rate and our 2 dog discount calculates from the new base rate.

Same Rules Without Modifies Base Rate:

Without the weight rule modifying the base rate, the 2 dog discount will apply to the original base rate of $50, and then $10 (weight charge) will be added after.
