This guide explains how Quantity and Unit Price calculation settings affect pricing behavior in SOFT4Spaces when generating Service Journal Lines from Lease Contract data.
Different pricing scenarios can be configured depending on the Service Price Type and Real Estate Setup parameters.
After releasing the Lease Contract with configured Service Prices, the Service Journal Lines will be generated based on the Real Estate Setup combinations below.
Scenario 1: Fixed Price Type without Use Quantity
Option 1: Standard Fixed Price
Result: Service Journal Line Quantity = 1, with the fixed Unit Price from the Service Price list.
Option 2: Recalculated Unit Price
Result: The system uses the Quantity from Lease Contract Lines and divides the total amount by that quantity to calculate the Unit Price.
Note:
The Use Lease Unit Area as Quantity parameter does not affect calculations in this pricing configuration.
Scenario 2: Fixed Price Type with Use Quantity Enabled
Result: Regardless of whether Use Lease Unit Area as Quantity or Recalculate Unit Price by Quantity are enabled in Real Estate Setup, the amount calculation will be: Quantity × Price from Lease Contract Lines.
Note:
If Quantity equals 0, the Service Journal Line will not be created.
Scenario 3: Area-Based Price Type
Option 1: Default Area Pricing
Result: Service Journal Line Quantity = 1.
Option 2: Area-Based Quantity
Result: Quantity is used from the Lease Contract Lines and the amount is calculated Current Unit Area field × Price.
Option 3: Quantity-Based Unit Price Recalculation
Result: The system uses the Quantity from Lease Contract Lines and divides the total amount by that quantity to calculate the Unit Price.
Option 4: Both Parameters Enabled
Result: When both parameters are enabled, priority is given to Use Lease Unit Area as Quantity. The calculation will follow Option 2 logic (Current Unit Area × Price).
