A route has five different nurse's stations inside a hospital as route stops, but you only want to bill and pay for the initial hospital stop and pay less for each stop at the nurse's stations.

Fall back to base tier | If enabled, and there is no match for Lookup 1 and Lookup 2, it will check for Lookup 1 where the Tier is less than the Base Tier. A route stop using the Advanced Fallback Rating Stamp Rate Chart above with a route stop where Lookup 1 is "85004" and Lookup 2 is "85018". Since the Fall back to base tier is checked and it could not match both Lookup 1 and Lookup 2, the route stop will rate at $20. If enabled, and there is a match for Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 it will rate as listed in the Advanced Fallback Rate. If disabled, and there is a match for Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 it will rate as listed in the Advanced Fallback Rate. If disabled, and there is no match for Lookup 1 and Lookup 2, it will rate 0. |
Rate By Route | If enabled, only stops on the first stop's route and post date will be rated. If disabled, stops on any route with the same post date are rated. ExampleYou want to rate only the first route stop with Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 set to "85004" at $15 and the following route stops with the same lookups at $0. If Rate By Route is checked, then it will rate the first stop on each route. The first stop on route 1234 and the first stop on route 5678 would be rated at $15 each. If Rate By Route is unchecked, then it will rate the first imported route stop regardless of the route ID. So only the first stop imported on route 1234 would be rated $15 and the first stop on route 5678 would rate at $0. |
Examples
A route stop using the Advanced Fallback Rating Stamp Rate Chart above will rate at $15 for the first route stop with Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 as "85004", then $10 for the second to the third route stop with Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 as "85004", then $7.50 after the fourth stop with Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 as "85004" on the same route with the same post date.
