Freight Handling Code (42/FR)

You use freight handling codes to identify various freight information. To comply with EU requirements, modify the freight handling codes to include the codes that you set up for the Condition of Transport, Condition of Transport extension, and Mode of Transport tables. For this action, enter the codes for the conditions of transport, conditions of transport extension, and modes of transport in the second description field for the table.

Note: You must set up one freight handling code line in UDC 42/FR for each separate combination of Condition of Transport, Condition of Transport extension, and Mode of Transport tables.

The Description 02 field accepts up to 15 characters. When you modify freight handling codes, use the first three characters in the field to specify the conditions of transport. Use the fourth character to indicate the COTX extension (the code for the place indicated in the contract of transport). The COTX extension is required only in certain countries. Enter the code for mode of transport as the fifth character of the second description.

Note: You should define the codes that indicate the various conditions and modes of transport on their respective UDC tables, in addition to indicating the conditions and modes of transport on the freight handling codes. If the conditions and modes of transport are not defined in their respective tables, you receive an error when you try to modify the condition or mode of transport in the Intrastat Revision table.

For IDEP, the Incoterms field accepts only these values:

C: Main transportation expenses paid (CFR, CIF, CPT, CIP).
D: Arrival (DAF, DES, DEQ, DDU, DDP).
E: Depart (EXW).
F: Main transportation not paid (FCA, FAS, FOB).

For IDEP, set up UDC 42/FR with these codes, rather than the standard transport conditions, in the first three positions of the Description 02 field.
