Chapter 32: Working with SCF/Ship Via Values (WSHV)
Purpose: A Sectional Center Facility (SCF) code represents the first 3 digits of the destination postal code. A Ship Via code is used to indicate the areas (postal codes) where shippers deliver merchandise.
The system uses this information in Order Entry and Order Maintenance to ensure that the shipper assigned to the order can deliver to the shipping address on the order. You must create a record for every valid Ship Via/SCF combination. If a record does not exist for the ship via on an order and the SCF of the shipping address, a message such as the following displays in Order Entry:
Ship via (11) is not valid with ship to zip code (088).
Use the Work with SCF Ship Via Values screen to create, change, delete, or display SCF/ship via values.
You can also create SCF/ship via values using the following menu options:
