Managing Card Rate Definition

The Card Rate Definition window enables you to manage the card rates for pricing Definition

Card process involves finding a suitable price for the customer based on a pre-determined (set of) options available for that product and other dimensional combinations. Similar criteria cannot be provided with different rates. Error message is displayed when a criteria is being repeated (duplicated) within a defined time window.

The system checks for the following conditions to identify the repetition of criteria:

·        If the defined criteria is similar to another criteria within the same definition.

·        If there are any overlap in the effective dates. The following are the two conditions:

§        The effective start date of a created criteria is greater than the effective start date of an existing criteria, but less than the effective end date of the same existing criterion.

§        The effective end date of created criteria is greater than the effective start date of an existing criteria but less than the effective end date of the same existing criterion.

If all the above conditions are met, then the criteria is repetition (duplication). An error message is displayed when repetition (duplication) occurs indicating that the two defined card rates have different rates for similar criteria. You can either edit the card rate criteria or delete it.
