# Published Rates

The **Published rates** view is a report that lists your rates together with their latest price and the date that price was last updated. Use it as a reference to check the pricing your firm is currently working with, and when each rate's price last changed.

It does not create or calculate prices — it shows the latest price already recorded for each rate. To add rates, set prices or manage categories, use [Pricing Management](../management/management-pricing.md) instead.

## The rate list

Each row describes one rate:

- **Rate name** — The name of the rate, for example *Developer* or *Standard Travel Rate*
- **Rate type** — The kind of billable the rate applies to: Time, Travel, Product or Per diem
- **Firm** — The firm the rate belongs to. Blank when the rate is not limited to a specific firm
- **Personal rate** — Shows a check mark icon when the rate belongs to a specific person. This column only appears when at least one personal rate exists
- **Department** — The department the rate is limited to. This column only appears when at least one rate is tied to a department
- **Latest price** — The current price for the rate, shown in the selected currency
- **Last price update** — The date the rate's latest price was last changed

## Viewing published rates

1. Click **Data** in the main navigation menu.
2. Click **Published rates** in the Data list (or the **Published rates** card on the Data overview page).
3. The page opens at **Data / Rates** and lists your rates, sorted by rate name.

You can click a rate to open it and edit its details. Prices shown here are the latest recorded prices, not a history of how a rate has changed over time — to see what a rate was originally set to, see [Pricing History](../pricing/pricing-history.md).

## Filtering rates

Use the filters at the top of the list to narrow down the rates shown:

- **Quick filter** — Type to search by rate name.
- **Rate type** — Choose **All rates** (default), **Time**, **Travel**, **Product** or **Per diem**.
- **Firm and department** — Limit the list to specific firms or departments.
- **Active status** — Choose **Active** (default), **Inactive**, or **Both active and inactive**.
- **Currency** — At the top right of the page, choose which currency the **Latest price** amounts are shown in.

The number of matching rates is shown above the table (for example, *Showing 12 rates*). If a search or filter matches nothing, the list shows **The search returned no results.**; use **Clear filters** to reset the filters. When no rates exist at all, the list shows **There are no rates yet.**

## Sorting

Click a column heading to sort by that column, and click again to reverse the order. You can sort by **Rate name** (the default), **Rate type**, **Firm**, **Personal rate** and **Last price update**. The **Latest price** column cannot be sorted.

## Exporting the list

To export the published rates to a spreadsheet:

1. Click **Export** above the table.
2. Choose **Download as Excel spreadsheet**.

The list is downloaded as an Excel file. See [Exporting Tables to Excel](../reporting/excel-export.md) for more about exports in Manor.

## Best practices

> **Keep prices current** — Regularly check the **Last price update** column so you know when rates were last changed before quoting or invoicing work.

> **Filter by type** — Use the **Rate type** filter to focus on one kind of rate, for example all Time rates, when reviewing or comparing prices.

> **Check the active status** — The list shows active rates by default. Switch **Active status** to **Both active and inactive** to also see rates that are no longer in use.

> **Confirm the currency** — If your firm uses more than one currency, check the currency selector so you are reading prices in the currency you expect.
