Category Class Profile: Master Rates Tab
Use the Master Rates tab to maintain default rental rates for the selected category, class, and subclass across branches. Master rates let you define consistent pricing once and apply those values to location-specific rates on the Rental Rates screen.
When you update a master rate, IntelliDealer can propagate the change to matching rates at the selected location or locations. A location rate is updated only when its current value still matches the master rate value before the change. Rates that were customized at a branch are not overwritten. For more information, see Updating Rental Rates Using the Master Rates Option.
To open the Master Rates tab, navigate to Configuration > Rental > Category Class Subclass Setup, open a category, class, and subclass record from the list, and select Master Rates.

Click Save & Close to save the master rate and open the Select Location Modal modal.
When a master rate has been saved, click Delete on the edit modal to remove the master rate record.
Click Close to close the modal without saving.
Select Location Modal
After you save a master rate, the Select Location modal opens so you can choose which location rates to update.
Enter a specific location to update rates at that location only. Leave the field blank or enter AA to update rates at all location in the division.
IntelliDealer updates a location rate only when its current value still matches the master rate value before your customization. If a location rate was customized and no longer matches the master rate, that location rate is not changed.
Click Save to apply the master rate and propagate changes to the selected location or locations. Click Cancel to close the modal without propagating changes to location rates.
Copy Master Rates
Click Copy to copy all master rates for the selected category, class, and subclass to a branch. The Copy Master Rates modal prompts you to enter the destination location.
IntelliDealer copies master rates to the selected location only when a matching duration and level rate does not already exist at that location. If the duration is not yet configured for the category, class, and subclass at the destination location, the system creates the rental rate type and adds the rate from the master rate.
Use Copy during initial setup to populate branch rates from master rates. Use the edit workflow and Select Location Modal modal to update existing location rates that still match the master rate values.
