Charging and Billing
Accessories or attachments may be billed separately by a rental company or the cost may be included within the main piece of equipment.
Attachments may be swapped out or exchanged during a rental contract as site conditions or tasks require alternate attachments. Many attachments for large equipment can easily be attached / detached by human hand on site, others are large or complex and may require the rental company to provide a technician on site to perform the swap, or may require lifting equipment to allow the swap to be performed. This may be managed like a rental relocation or simply as a service order.
From a Utilization point of view, it should be possible to review both the utilization of an individual attachment, if they are also rented without their main equipment item, or purely as a subsection of the main item. If individual charges are applied to individual attachments or accessories then this will feed into the financial utilization of the attachment in its own right, but may also be regarded as part of the financial utilization of the main item.

Famous quotes containing the word charging:
“Faster than fairies, faster than witches,
Bridges and houses, hedges and ditches;
And charging along like troops in a battle,
All through the meadows the horses and cattle;”
