Setting up multiple indexes for a rate
Multiple indexes may be defined for a billing rate so that the same rate may be used in different cases without having to recreate the rate table. For example, suppose you want the same rate to apply for two separate commodity classes. Although you could set up a rate schedule for each commodity class, another option would be to create a single rate with two indexes. The first index would specify one commodity class (in the Fgt Class field); the second index would specify the second commodity class.
To set up a rate with multiple indexes, follow these steps:
1. Set up the rate. Record the first set of restrictions in the index area of the rate.
2. With the index in view, select either of these options from the Edit menu:
The Insert > Row(s) / Index.
The Add > Row(s) / Index.
The original index moves out of view. A new, blank index appears in its place. The system displays a note in the upper right corner of the index portion of the screen telling you how many indexes exist for the rate.
To switch between indexes, highlight a field in the index currently displayed and press the PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN key to bring the desired index into view.
3. Record the desired restrictions for the new index.
4. Click the

icon in the sheet toolbar, or select
