Extra Fee Groups

Purpose

When making Extra Fees, you have the option to select an Extra Fee Group.

Extra Fee Groups help manage your extra fees by putting them in order if you have a lot of similar extra fees that can be filed under one group. Eg - GPS, baby seat > You could create an extra Fee Group called "Accessories & Optional Extras". 




Ordering your Extra Fee Groups can be a handy time saving tool if you have a lot of Extra Fees. For instance, you want all your Extra Fees that are under the "Accessories & Optional Extras" group at the bottom of all your pre existing fees, you would give the Extra Fee Group a higher number. Eg - 99. 





Note that any Extra Fee Groups that don't use ordering will show at the top by default and any number depending on their order, will follow.
Further down in the article, you will see how you can order your Extra Fee Groups.
