Editing Rate Utilization

'''Purpose'''

Rates can be set up so they can only be used when the fleet utilization is at a certain level. This menu item allows you to set the utilization ranges for each rate.

Rates that have the minimum and maximum utilization set to zero are valid for any utilization.

'''Note''': Setting the maximum utilization to 100% on a rate does not mean it can always be used. If the utilization happens to go over 100%, the rate will not be valid.

If activating Custom Feature(CF) R1013, which uses the vehicle's current location instead of owning location for calculations, you may need to set the '''Reporting Level''' for the location to '''Region''' to obtain proper utilization.

When performing an availability search, if the '''Rate Shop''' box is ticked, Rate Utilization will be based on Rates where the Rate Rules has the '''Shoppable''' box ticked.
