Default Ship Via (A77)

Purpose: Use this screen to define the default shipper on the initial Order Entry screen.

Number field: Enter the number for the shipper that will default in the Ship Via field on the initial Order Entry screen.

This code must be established in the SCF/Ship Via table. See Working with SCF/Ship Via Values (WSHV).

Ship via overrides: There are several ways the system can override the shipper specified on the order with another shipper. See Ship Via Override Hierarchy for a list of ways the system can override the shipper specified on the order with another shipper and the hierarchy in which the ship via overrides take precedence.

Automatic “best way” override: In order to have the system automatically select the ship via with the lowest overall shipping costs in order entry, the Default Ship Via should be the same as the Best Way Ship Via for Auto-Assignment (J67). See that system control value for more information.
