We have 4 subsections for listed on this screen namely

    1) Add Rates 
    2) Edit Rates 
    3) Sort   
    4) Subscribers


The detailed description of each of them follows.

1) Add Rates 
---------------
    Plan rates are divided broadly into 2.They are

      1) Fixed rate plan[user cannot provide additional requirements]
    These plan rates could be just selected by the user without giving any extra requirements.Examples could be "50 MB Linux hosting for  $100" or "10 MB Windows hosting for  $150".

        a) It could be a one time billing where a user is charged only at the     time of purchase.
        b) It could be a monthly billing type where the user is billed initially on a prorated basis to adjust the billing date to 1st of the month and then billing regularly on the 1st of the month.
        c) It could be a anniversary billing where the client is billed on the plan ending date.
    


    2) Plans with user inputs[users can provide additional requirements] 

    These care plans used to provide extra rates where the user selects the no of extras he wants. If there are no existing rates, enter the basic rate. The description field will be displayed to the     user. The other fields are used by the system for calculation. After you have a basic rate, you can add more basic rates or extra rates. While entering extra rates, manually calculate the base rate. The base rate is the starting rate for the extra rate.For example, if you have a basic rate ‘$20 per month up to 10 tickets’, and you want to add an extra rate like ‘$1.5 extra per month there after’, then the base rate will be $20. And since this extra rate is for a single ticket, the Packet Size will be 1. Thus the rate for 14 tickets will be the (base rate) + ((extra packets needed) * (extra rate)) --> 20 + (4 * 1.5) = 26. As another example, if you have a basic rate ‘$200 per month up to 100 tickets’, and you want to add an extra rate like ‘$75 extra per month for each 100 tickets there after’, then the base rate will be $200. And since this extra rate is for 100 tickets, the Packet Size will be 100. Thus the rate for 800 tickets will be calculated as (base rate) + ((extra packets needed) * (extra     rate)) -->  200 + (6 * 75) = 650. The system does not take care of the values you enter in these fields. Erroneous inputs here may lead to erroneous results.

        a) It could be a one time billing where a user is charged only at the     time of purchase.
        b) It could be a monthly billing type where the user is billed initially on a prorated basis to adjust the billing date to 1st of the month and then billing regularly on the 1st of the month.
        c) It could be a anniversary billing where the client is billed on the plan ending date.
