Abstract

Data entry fields for entering a transaction fee structure are laid out in a grid of rows and in three or four columns. Data entered in a field in the second column defines the end point amount for a tier of transactions and is automatically populated into the field in the first column in the next row to define the starting point for the next tier of transactions. Data entered into a field in the third or fourth column defines a fee level for the tier of transactions defined by the amounts in the fields in the same row and in the first and second columns.
