Travel invoicing settings of an appointment type
An appointment type has three settings that control how ezyVet calculates travel costs. The settings are in the Travel Billing section of the configuration of the appointment type.
These sections give information about the function of each setting.
Variable Travel Fee Product setting
Use the Variable Travel Fee Product setting to select a financial product that ezyVet uses to calculate variable travel costs. Variable travel costs mean that you can invoice a different travel cost for a different appointment type.
Next, you make an appointment that uses the farm appointment type. The client address of the appointment has a Distance (Kilometres) value of 3. Thus, ezyVet calculates a travel cost of $15 for the appointment.
Minimum Fee value
Use the Minimum Fee value to set the minimum travel cost that ezyVet calculates for an appointment.
Next, you make an appointment that uses the farm appointment type. The client address of the appointment has a Distance (Kilometres) value of 3. Thus, ezyVet calculates a travel costs of $20 for the appointment.
Fixed Travel Fee Product setting
Use the Fixed Travel Fee Product setting to select the financial product that ezyVet uses to calculate fixed travel costs. A fixed travel cost is a travel cost that always shows in an invoice for an appointment.
You also make a financial product for fixed travel costs. The financial product has a value of $15. You use the Fixed Travel Fee Product setting of the same appointment type to select the financial product.
Next, you make an appointment that uses the city appointment type. The client address of the appointment has a Distance (Kilometres) value of 3. Thus, ezyVet calculates a travel cost of $45 for the appointment.
