Apply new rates only starting from given line

With this checkbox you can chose whether new lines only apply for new days / nights / etc., or overwrite all days (even those already defined by previous lines).

Let’s look at an example to clarify what we mean:

In this screenshot you see a setup, in which the first 4 days cost 100€, the 5. and 6. day cost 90€ and from 7 days each day costs 80€.

Now let’s imagine someone books for 8 days and compare the two cases (checkbox on vs. checkbox off)

Checkbox off:

With the checkbox off the system only looks at which line applies, which in this case is the third line (7 – ∞) and calculates all days with this price.

So it also applies backwards.

The calculation will simply be 8*80€=640€

Checkbox on:

With the checkbox on, the system only applies the price changes for the days starting from the given line.

This means that for a booking duration of 8 days the calculation will be:

4*100€ + 2*90€ + 2*80€ = 740€

That is because for each individual day we look at what line its price is defined on.

So the days 1-4 are defined on line 1 (price 100€), the days 5 and 6 are defined on line 2 (price 90€) and the days 7 and 8 are defined on line 3 (price 80€).

So in Summary:

If your price reduction should only apply for future days / nights / etc., set the checkbox to on.

If the price reduction should apply for all days (even those from before when the line applied), leave the checkbox off.
