> [!NOTE]
> **Note**: These plans apply to **UAD 3.6** orders.

1. Navigate to the top navigation bar and select **Preferences**.
2. Select **Fees** in the dropdown menu.
3. Click the **double arrow icon** at the top of the sidebar to open the left navigation, then select **Client Price Plans**.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**: You must configure value tiers before creating fee plans. Tiers are determined by the property’s Sales Price or the Owner’s Estimate of Value. For detailed instructions, refer to the article: How to Create New Value Tiers in Mercury Network®®.
4. On the **VMP Client Price Plans** page, select **Create New Plan**.
  1. Select **Bulk Upload**. The bulk spreadsheet method is the primary way to create multiple fee plans.
  2. Enter a plan name in the **Fee Plan Name** field.
  3. Select **Manually add fees** as the **Base Fees** methodology for the plan.
  4. Click **Next**.
5. On the **Upload Plan Details** section, click on the **Instructions** to view the file requirements.

    1. List every combination of **products** and **geographic** areas your fee schedule requires.
    2. For each **product**, include a base price for each configured Value Tier.
    3. Specify add-on fees for any order data points that, when true for the order, increase the fee. The total client price for an order is calculated by adding the base fee + any applicable add-on fees.
7. Upload your fee plan spreadsheet.
  1. Click **Browse file** to upload the completed template back into the system. You may assign any name to your file; the system does not require a specific naming convention.
  2. Click **Save Fee Plan**.
8. On the **VMP Client Price Plans** page, click **View Fees** to monitor your spreadsheet upload status and confirm the plan passed validation.

> [!NOTE]
