For our example, we will change the rate of Run 1DOGLRG from $80 to $85.
To adjust run rates, click on File, Lists, Runs. Put in your new rate.
There is a checkbox for 'Adjust booking'. This is the box to check if you also want to adjust prices on existing appointments.
Please note: If you change the price, click Save and THEN click the 'Adjust booking' box and hit Save, KC will not adjust any bookings. The 'Adjust booking' box MUST be checked BEFORE you hit Save.
When you check the box and hit Save, a message will appear asking if you want to adjust the rate of bookings that have already been scheduled for this run.
Click Yes again to the second prompt, then enter your admin ID.
There will be another prompt asking if you are sure. Click Yes.
Once you click Yes on the last message, the rates for any future existing bookings that fall within these parameters will be adjusted to the new rate.
