Setting Up Shipping Charges

To set up shipping charges, first you define shipping zones, and then you define the charges for each zone. A shipping zone includes both a ship-from location and a ship-to location.

These shipping charges apply to employee applications. For information about setting up shipping charges for Siebel eSales, see Siebel eSales Administration Guide.
