Viewing and Calculating Freight Charges

Use the Carrier Table page to indicate whether or not you want freight charges calculated externally by a third-party freight interface. If you select external, you will need to set up third-party information on the Carrier URL page.

At the order header level, access the Freight Charges page to calculate freight charges for the deliveries on the sales order. The selection on the Order Entry Features page determines when and how the freight charges are calculated:

• If you elected to have freight charges calculated online, they are calculated automatically at order save or when you click the Freight Charges link on the Order Entry Form page.

• If you elected to have freight charges calculated manually, they are calculated only when you click the Freight Charges link on the Order Entry Form page.

• If you elected to have freight charges calculated in the background, they are calculated when the Order Completion process (OM_BACKGRND) is run.

Click the Freight Detail link on the Freight Charges page to access the Freight Detail page, where you can view the audit details for how each freight charge was calculated for each delivery.

At the order header level, access the Deliveries page to view the details of each delivery of the order. You can also change or add the freight charge method on the Deliveries page.

In PeopleSoft Order Management, freight charges appear in the Price Summary section of the Order Entry Form page and are printed on the Sales Order report.
