Note: For outstation duties, you can calculate the rate based on the per kilometre cost. E.g. If your Outstation duty type is 250km per day and your per KM rate is Rs.15, then the base rate for Outstation duty type would be 250x15 = 3750/-

  • Extra KM Rate: Enter the rate you pay per KM if the duty exceeds the duty type KM limit.
  • Extra HR Rate: Enter the rate you pay per hour if the duty exceeds the duty type hour limit.

Sometimes, a duty may exceed the distance or kilometres limit of the duty type it was booked under. In such cases, it becomes imperative that different rates are taken into account when calculating the cost for such a duty. Thankfully, Indecab allows you to configure the required actions for such scenarios, allowing you to calculate the right pricing for the duty, without any manual calculations.

In the next article we will learn about setting up auto-switch based on Duty Types.
