To make it easier for the user we've created the possibility to name your file. This can be done by adding a name in the 'Name' field. This is not mandatory.

To finally upload your file press the yellow 'Upload' button.

Your file will now appear in the screen next to the upload section. It will display some details:

Depending on the outcome of your upload the message button can have three different colours:

! Be aware that when uploading an already existing rate the yellow button will appear; PhiRater will overwrite partially (zones will not be overwritten) and indicate he already found this rate on your instance of PhiRater. This is also a check to see if you did not upload double rates (i.e. already existing names in your PhiRater instance)

 

! Be aware linear rates will never generate a green button as there are no price matrixes. PhiRater will indicate no price sheets are found however you've added all relevant information in the 'Linear' tab. This does not cause anly further problems.

 

    3. Red: a crucial mistake has been made. Click the red button to see what        went wrong. PhiRater will give you sufficient feedback on what went wrong so you know which action to take.
