Delete Rates

This function allows rates to be deleted from the Product database and will delete rates entered in the Rate Period - Rates Tab for the services filtered. (It is not deleting the Product Option. A typical use would be to remove expired rates from the system.

When a service is entered into a booking, the rate(s) applicable to the service for the service date is copied into the booking. The product rates are not referenced again unless a Booking recalculation is performed. Therefore, the rates do not have to be kept in the system indefinitely.
