# Adding a New Billing Rate

This lesson will show you how to add a new billing rate in AgileCase. Billing rates allow you to generate invoices for your cases so you can easily keep track of your customers payments. You can find out more about the billing system in [these](/user-documentation/accounts-and-bills.md) lessons.

Once you have finished, click "Save Description" to close the window and save your new billing rate.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.agilecase.com/administrator-documentation/system-settings/adding-a-new-billing-rate.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
