Calculate custom charges based on inventory volume
In addition to using Calculate Custom Charges to calculate things based on a factor of the value of rental items (e.g. Insurance calculated @ 7% of rental items total amount), Viberent now provides functionality to calculate additional charges based on Volume of equipment.
In the Inventory Management screen, in the Unit of Measure field, enter the volume value of the item (ie 1 item occupies 3m3 or 5m2 of volume).
In Item Management – Custom Charges configuration screen, select an existing entry (or create a new entry) and tick on “Calculate Additional Charges”.
Whenever a Quote or a Rental is raised, the system will calculate the value based on the total value of all the items that involve calculation based on the volume and show the figures accordingly.
