Rate Fixed Price 1:

*Rate Allowed = deselected for the Friday.Make sure the check-in and check-out tick boxes are enabled on all days otherwise this rate rprice will not be allowed for a booking that arrives or departs on a weekend but also includes weekdays.

Rate Fixed Price 2:

*If the price is the same or higher than the first rate Fixed Price you can leave this rate Fixed Price available on all nights. If the 2 night weekend price is lower and not allowed on weekdays you can deselect the "Rate Allowed" tick boxes for the weekdays.

Again make sure the check-in and check-out tick boxes are selected for all nights so the two rates Fixed Prices can be combined for bookings which overlap both.
