3.1.4.4.1 How to automate Frequency calculation for time unit based prices?

Challenge

ADvendio offers multiple Billing Categories to be used. Some inventory need to be sold based on time units (e.g. Cost per Day) so that the runtime of a Campaign Item should be counted towards the total amounts.

It is time consuming to count the days, months, etc. manually and then enter the value into the configuration.


Solution 

In ADvendio you can use the Frequency field to enter the counted days, months etc..

With the automated calculation turned on the values will simply be entered and changed based on the entered runtime.

Please find a few examples how values will be entered below.
