Weekly Rate Breakdown

Calculate pro-rata values on invoices using the breakdown of the first week’s rate rather than the standard subsequent days or weeks.

What is "Weekly Rate Breakdown"?

If your pricing model includes different daily charges for the first week (e.g., front-loaded pricing), this ensures that:

  • Those day-specific rates are applied each week, rather than switching to a flat weekly or daily rate.

  • When an item is returned early (before a full week is completed), the pro-rata amount is based on the first week’s breakdown, not a generic weekly or daily rate.

How It Works

Let’s say your first week is priced like this:

  • Day 1 – $100

  • Day 2 – $150

  • Day 3 – $200

With the Weekly Rate option turned on:

  • Week 2 and onward repeats this same pattern (Day 1 = $100, Day 2 = $150, etc.).

  • If a customer returns the item on Day 2 of Week 2, the invoice will reflect:

    • Full price for Week 1

    • $100 (Day 1) + $150 (Day 2) for Week 2
