Managing commonly used inclusive or additional rates.
"Rate" is the amount of the total order sales deducting the amount of the purchased items.

Rate calculation
You can set two calculation methods: "included" and "additional". Included: Rate does not affect the (sales) total and is only listed in the order detail. Additional: Rate affects the (sales) total. Add "(sales) subtotal" to "rate" equals the (sales) total.
For example, if the (sales) subtotal is $1,000, the "included rate" (e.g. tax fee) is $200, and the "added rate" (e.g. commission fee for the company) is $400. The information shown in the order details page is below:
- (sales) Subtotal:** $1000
- Included rate (tax fee) : $200
- Additional rate (commission) : $400
- Total : $1400 (1000 + 400)
To complete the rate setting, click "OK".
