Storage fees are automatically charged for certain vehicles. After the grace period ends, vehicles that meet the criteria are automatically charged a storage fee. (To see the criteria, refer to “Understand When a Vehicle Is Considered Stored” in the ADESA Help Center.)
You can adjust the grace period by customer account, by lot, and by auction site. When the grace period ends, the customer will be charged a storage fee for each eligible vehicle. To adjust the grace period by customer account or by lot, see “Manage the Storage Fee Configuration for an Entire Customer Account” and “Manage the Grace Period for Storage Fees by Lot” in the ADESA Help Center.
If you have access to Reference Data Maintenance in AMS, you can adjust the grace period for the entire auction site and all of its customer accounts. The following steps walk you through specifying the grace period for all buyers and sellers:
1. From the menu, choose Function→Administration→Reference Data Maintenance, as shown in Figure 1.
The Reference Data Maintenance window appears.
2. Select Storage Fee Grace Period from the list on the left side of the window (see Figure 2).
The right side of the Reference Data window changes so that you can edit the grace period.
3. Enter the date you’d like the grace period to begin in the Start Date text box.
4. Enter the number of days of the grace period (see Figure 3).
5. Click on the Save button in the toolbar (see Figure 4).
The grace period is adjusted for every customer account at the auction.
