The tariff value button type is used in situations where there are only predefined steps to choose from for a tariff and extrapolation of values between steps are not allowed.
The button type needs two declarations to be functional. One part is in the tariff package and the second part is in the user interface. The values of the tariff buttons will be copied to the value of the user interface buttons when an article with this type of tariff is selected for purchase.
There must be a valueButtons section with a valueButton for each step in the tariff. The tariff interval step must be a unit rate with values that match the value button. Linear or flat rates are not useful for this kind of set up.
If there are more buttons declared in the tariff than can be showed in the user interface, the button types Right and Left are used to scroll between sets of tariff buttons. The maxVisibleButtons property is then used as a threshold value for the Right button to be showed.

See the CWT User Interface Design Handbook for an example and styles to use: |
attributes
maxVisibleButtons
| Description: | The maxVisibleButtons property must match the number of declared visible value buttons in the user interface. This number is used when copying values from the tariff’s value buttons to the user interface’s value button so if maxVisibleButtons=10, tariff step 1 to 10 is copied to the user interface value button ids 1 to 10. |
