Special rates for freight can be maintained in this Freight
Price Codes window in the "Rental Rates & Pricing"
parameters on the Operations tab of the Configure System Settings.
An operator must be assigned a Security
Role that allows permission to the Operations - Freight
Price Codes in order to access this table.
Freight Codes can be setup for product groups with special
delivery/pickup rates to be given to specified customers.
For example special Freight Price Codes could be required for
contractors.
Once setup for the relevant product groups, the freight codes can
be assigned to customers in the "Additional Information" window of
Customer Information, and/or to divisions
in the Divisional Delivery/Pickup
Parameters.
If a customer should always get free delivery and pickup then setup a Freight Price Code for free delivery/pickup, including all groups, with no charge in each of the delivery and pickup fields. Then assign the freight price code in the Customer Information.
The prompts to setup a Freight Price Code are:
A window is provided to view and select from any existing Freight Codes, as outlined in Freight Code Search.
Leave this field blank if this group does NOT use a minimum
freight charge.
Enter the minimum freight charge to be applied when freight charges
are accumulated by quantity. The minimum charge is useful for piece
items like scaffolding.
