Rate View
Rate sets are used to store multipliers that are used in generating derived costs. Since rates may change over time, rate sets define the rate that is applicable on any given date.
The Rate view is comprised of the following sections.
| Area | Description |
|---|---|
| Rate Sets Grid | This area displays the rate sets defined in the rate file, as well as the code files assigned to the rate set. |
| Rates Grid | This area displays the rates defined for the selected rate set and the effective dates for the rates. |
| Details Tab | This tab displays the name and description of the selected rate set. |
Use the New Rate File Wizard to create a rate file.
