Configure Chargeback by Tier for AppLogic Applications

Chargeback by tier is the method used for charging for reservations on AppLogic applications.

When assigning chargeback rates, keep in mind that the charge is for 24 hours a day and 7 days a week during the reservation period. Enter realistic hourly rates based on factors like energy costs and hardware maintenance expense. Most rates range from 10 cents to 50 cents an hour.
