Events
Job Events for a site work in conjunction with the Job Locations to define the rates and dates that
should apply to rentals on a counter document that is identified as
servicing a specific Event.
The prompts to setup a Job Event codes for this Site
include:
-
- SEQ
- The sequence number tracks the records in the Event file.
EVENT
- Enter the Event name or description.
e.g. ARA Trade Show
START DATE
- Enter the starting date of the event.
If there is no Delivery date range allowed for this Event, then
this is the date used as the Out Date on rental documents
designated for this event.
END DATE
- Enter the ending date of the event.
If there is no Pickup date range allowed for this Event, then this
is the date used as the Due Back Date on rental documents
designated for this event.
EXPIRY DATE
- Enter the date after which this Event should no longer
apply.
This is the actual current system date, NOT the date of the
document.
RENTAL RATE CODE
- Enter the rental rate code to be used to determine the constant
unit rate for each product on a rental document for this event, or
select one from the window as setup in Company
Default Rates.
The corresponding amount for the rate code per the product's
standard rate structure, will be multiplied by the Rental Rate
Factor for this Event, to determine the flat rate for the
product for the Event period.
RENTAL RATE FACTOR
- Enter the rate factor to be used as a multiplier against the
rate code.
Event Rental Rate Calculation:
- The product rate as per the Event Rental Rate Code,
times the Rental Rate Factor for the event, would then be
the total flat event charge for the rental product.
- If the regular product rate structure does NOT include the
Rental Rate code defined for this event, it uses the
Event Rate amount from the product rate structure (code "E")
and the event Factor is not applied.
- If the regular product rate structure does NOT include either
that Rate code or "E" for Event, then the regular rate processing
applies and Event processing does not apply for that product.
Expanded Detail Record
- Click EXP/CON button or press <F9> to
expand the record and to access the following information:
- DELIVERY PERIOD:
- Enter the optional 'From Date/Time' and the 'To Date/Time' to
allow for the Delivery and setup Period.
If a Delivery date range is entered for this Event, then the
'From Delivery' date is used as the Out Date on rental
documents designated for this event.
The Times are not used to calculate the document Out
Time.
This is also used for the Descartes delivery/pickup
schedule processing.
PICKUP PERIOD:
- Enter the optional 'From Date/Time' and the 'To Date/Time'
range allowed for the Pickup Period after the event is concluded.
If a Pickup date range is entered for this Event, then the 'To
Pickup' date is used as the Due Back Date on rental
documents designated for this event.
The Times are not used to calculate the document Due Back
Time.
This is also used for the Descartes delivery/pickup
schedule processing.
Note: If the document detail dates are changed then the regular
rate processing applies unless the rate is over-typed with "E" for
Event.
