  5. Click Add New Item.

  6. Enter a rate name.

  7. Select the required duration type.

  8. Enter a start date and, if applicable, an end date.

  9. Enter a description if required.

  10. Tick the contracts the rate should apply to.

  11. Enter a reference code if required.

📌 Note: The Reference Code field is typically used for the budget code when setting up invoice rates for local authorities.

You can also configure:

  • Permissions

  • Client criteria (for example, location or cost centre)

Once complete, click Rate Details.


Rate details

  1. Click Add New Item.

  2. Enter a name for the rate detail.

  3. Configure the days of the week and time bands the rate should apply to.
