How to create price plans

The software has 3 different types of price plans available.  Individual, Subscription and Category.  Individual price plans are to purchase a single listing.  Subscription price plans are to purchase multiple listings for one price.  Category price plans are applied to a specific category only. 
 
If you have multiple editions of the software installed, then pricing is separate for each edition.  In this example we will use Directory edition.
 
To set up a price plan from the backoffice click on Directory – Pricing.  You will see sample price plans that come set up in the software.  Click the Edit link to edit and existing plan or click the Add New Record button to create a new price plan.
