The tariff table sets the cost and conditions such as base numbers and minimum night's stay.  There are many possible ways to use the features provided in the Tariff table. Please take a little time here understanding the possibilities as you may be able to save much time and end up with a far better outcome.  
 
TARIFF TAB:  
Description:  
Enter the description of the tariff

Rate Type:  
The example above has the rate is set to Nightly, which is appropriate for accommodation bookings.  
 
Most non accommodation sites including Event Management users would set this to Daily as a majority of their bookings will be within a day, or Hourly if a facilty is hired short term. The arrival and departure dates on the reservation screen will change to suit this setting.  
   
The per person option has not been selected as this tariff has a base of 2 adults.  
   
By selecting Day of the Week, each day is displayed. When not selected, the tariff table shows 1st night, 2nd night, 3rd night etc.  
   
Base Tariff:  
Enter the cost for each night. Costs may be different for each night but if day of week is not selected it is important to enter a figure in the after 7 nights box, to prevent no charge applying after 7 nights.  
 
Loop Back on 7th Night:  
This option is activated when your weekly tariff repeats itself instead of changing to a set nightly rate after 7 nights.  
   
Adults/Children/Infants/Others:  
RMS provides a Base Tariff which will include the number of Adults/Children/ Infants and any Additional Charges you specify.  
eg if you enter 2 adults in the Base box and 2 children in their base box, the Base Tariff you have entered above will be applied  
to any booking which has up to 2 adults and 2 children.  
 
Enter the cost you wish to charge for any additional adults/children and as well as the base tariff, the additional amount will be added.  
 
If Show on Account is selected, any additional charges will be displayed on the account.rather than added to the base rate and shown as a total rate.  
 
If Include in Base is selected, RMS will apply the base rate up until the total number of people specified in the base is reached. So a booking with a base of 2 adults and 2 children will be charged the base rate, as will a booking with 1adult and 3 children. It is not until the total number exceeds 4 that an additional charge will be applied.  
 
Do not select an account code unless you want to record revenue from this source in a particular account code. The default account will be the account code specified for the category or area being used.  
   
Every 7th night discount:  
Provides either a % or dollar discount for longer term stays for adults and children or 7th night stay.  
   
Options:  
Specify a minimum stay relating to this tariff and/or a minimum charge.
