Attaching a fee via Fee Settings

There are 2 determinants of the fees that are sent to Starting Blocks

1. Office will calculate the Median Fee from all the fees attached to a specific room. 
2. In the event no fees have been associated with a room, the centre Default fee will be submitted. The default fee can be found in Settings > Service Settings > Fees > Under Type 'Default'.

1. Check if your rooms are correctly set up to include the correct details.
   This includes age and room type.
2. If Starting Blocks is reporting $0, your rooms may not have fees associated to them and your default fee may be set to $0.
