Understanding Internal Freight Charges

Internal freight calculation is freight that is calculated using the PeopleSoft freight definitions. Alternatively, you can integrate with a third-party freight provider to calculate your sales order and shipping freight. Internal freight can be calculated in the sales order or quote in PeopleSoft Order Management or in demand fulfillment in PeopleSoft Inventory, including shipping. Whether performing internal or external freight calculation, you can also manually enter freight amounts in PeopleSoft Order Management or in PeopleSoft Inventory. This topic discusses the setup of PeopleSoft Order Management and Inventory to internally calculate freight charges. For quotes or sales orders, you can add freight costs during quote or order entry in PeopleSoft Order Management or you can add freight costs during the packing and shipping stages of PeopleSoft Inventory.
