Adding your Prices
By Lee Miller

This is probably the most difficult part of using Logistack, and until I can find a better way to do it, we're stuck with the following, for now!
The Basics
Download and extract to your computer, the quote_calc_save.php file.
Download and install a good code editor - Sublime Text.
Making the Edits
ONLY edit the postcode and numbers, nothing else, PHP code is incredibly fragile!
Note to the following code block
/* --------------------------------------------------------------- */
const DEPOT_POSTCODE = 'CO64FH'; // fixed depot (no space)
const LABOUR_RATE_PER_HOUR = 17.50; // £/hour
const DIESEL_PRICE_PER_LITRE = 1.42; // £/L
const VEHICLE_MPG = 38.0; // miles per gallon (UK)
const LONDON_SURCHARGE_GBP = 50.00; // flat £ when destination in GL areas
const VAT_RATE = 0.175; // 17.5% (set to 0 when needed)
// Background toll heuristics (postcode-based):
const ULEZ_CHARGE_GBP = 12.50; // set £12.50 if you want to apply ULEZ
const DART_CHARGE_GBP = 8.40; // set Dart Charge here if you want
/* ---------------------------------------------------------------------- */Once done upload the file using the Backup feature in Admin (Backup & Editing --> Backup), revisit Quote Calculator, add a postcode to see if the price suits. Repeat until you're happy with the price.
Any problems let me know, any customisations, feeedback, requests, suggestions, anything, contact by email mostly, in a complete emergency phone.
