Creating a task code that defaults to a flat fee

SUGGESTED

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here?  I'm trying to set a new task that overrides the settings in the client profile and creates a slip that defaults to a flat fee?  I have set Rate 1 to $500 and the Rate Type to "Flat".  I don't want the "Time Spent" to be a default but I've even tried it with one and without.
