What is a Rate?

A Rate is a quantity measured with respect to another measured quantity.

Create a new Rate:

To add a new Rate to your list, press the blue "+" button in the lower right corner of the Rates overview page:

Items with "*" are required.

Select the top unit of measurement

An example of top unit of measurement would be "Gallons" in the rate "Gallons/Acre"

Select the bottom unit of measurement

An example of the bottom unit of measurement would be "Acre" in the rate "Gallons/Acre"

Enter the Bottom Factor

The bottom factor defaults to "1.0". In the above example of Gallons/Acre technically this rate is Gallons/1.0 Acre. So if you are wanting to achieve something like "Fluid Ounces/100 Gallons" you would set the top unit of measure to "Fluid Ounces", the bottom unit of measure to "Gallons", and the Bottom Factor to "100.0"
