Troubleshooting​

I cannot find the template I want​

  1. Try searching by keyword (e.g., "twilight", "rain", "weekend").
  2. Check the correct category (Time, Demand, Weather, Event, Seasonal).

The template rule is not taking effect​

  1. Ensure the rule is Active and the time window matches your test slot.
  2. Increase the order if another rule is winning.
  3. Use Preview to confirm the rule matches.

The discount/premium is too strong​

  1. Edit the rule and lower the percentage/amount.
  2. Narrow the time window or days to reduce impact.

Template Best Practices​

Start Simple​

  1. Begin with 2-3 basic templates
  2. Monitor results for 2-4 weeks
  3. Add complexity gradually
