You define grade rates in the Grade Rate window.

Grade rate values are DateTracked and you must ensure you use the correct date to create your initial set of values.

2. Enter a name for the grade rate and select the units for measuring it. Save your new rate.

3. In the Grade Rate Values block, select the grades for which you want to define rates. For each grade, enter a fixed value or a minimum, maximum and mid value.

   To view comparatio values using this grade rate, you must enter a mid value.

4. Select a currency to link to the new rate. If you select a currency you must also enter a value in the Value field.
