Tool to manage modules in saaster

We first make sure that you know what we mean exactly by module. The term module might be a little confusing.

In saaster, a module is a small application that can be run alongside or together with a plan. You could also say "plugin" to the module, but not in the style of a WordPress plugin. With saaster, nothing is installed as with WordPress, but simply activated.

Just as with plans, a module can be given a price, a trial period or offered free of charge. It is also possible to link modules to a plan (see Plans/Modules).

Don't forget to click the save button before switching tabs!

Add a module

Add a new module by clicking on the button Add module. Give your module a name and save the module. You are now in the following screen:

Field	Description
Bookable	A module that cannot be booked is displayed to the customer but cannot be purchased.
Active	Activate or deactivate the module. A deactivated module is not displayed at the customer nor in the plans for linking.
Module name	The name of the module that is displayed in the box.
Short description	A small text that is displayed in the preview (box).
Description	A detailed text describing the module. Displayed using a modal.
Module settings	Please choose a short but meaningful name for the module. Make sure that the name does not contain any special characters. You will find further instructions right next to the mask or in the technical documentation.
Free module	If you want to capture the module as "free of charge", activate this checkbox. The tab "Prices" will then be deactivated.
Picture/Logo	Upload a logo or image for this module.
Number of test days	Allocate the number of days a customer may test the module before it must be purchased/booked.1

Module prices

The following mask provides for editing the prices of a module. You can either define a fixed price or recurring prices.

Field	Description
One time pricing	If the module is sold with a fixed price (one-time), enter the amount in each currency. The recurring prices are thus ignored or set to 0.
Price monthly	If recurring amounts, specify the amount for monthly payment
Price yearly	If recurring amounts, specify the amount for yearly payment (perhaps with discount)
Vat (%)	The value added tax in percent
Vat type	The type of VAT
Netto	Determine if net or gross prices

Module scheduletasks

In this tab you can add schedule tasks for the module. It is important to know that each schedule task can be executed at most every 2 minutes. 1-minute tasks are not possible. When saving, no direct schedule tasks are created in Lucee, but these are triggered by well-planned, system-wide schedule tasks.
