| Field or Control | Description |
|---|---|
|
Freight Terms |
Enter a freight terms code to override the default freight terms code. This override value is applied to the entire delivery. The freight terms code determines whether the buyer or the seller pays the freight. If the buyer pays the freight, then freight charges are passed to PeopleSoft Billing. If the seller pays the freight, then charges do not pass to PeopleSoft Billing. Keep in mind that the Freight Bill Type field determines which freight amounts are passed to PeopleSoft Billing; the amounts calculated at order entry or the amounts calculated during shipping. |

Freight Charge Method |

You have four options: Order Quantity, Order Value, Volume, and Weight. |
|
Freight Type |
View or change the freight type code to be used by the external third-party freight system. Freight types are defined at the SetID level and are placed on the header level of the outbound message to the third-party provider. The freight type is also used to derive the correct service definition to send with the outbound message. Entering a value here helps to limit the values displayed for the Freight Service Definition field in this group box. For more information about freight type codes, see Setting Up External Third-Party Freight Charges. |
|
Freight Service Definition |
View or override the freight service definition for this delivery. The freight service definition provides a way to cross-reference the third-party freight service with the PeopleSoft carrier and ship-via combinations. The Automated Service Option check box on the Setup Fulfillment- Delivery/Freight page determines if this PeopleSoft Inventory business unit uses the freight service definition with the third-party integration. Some third-party providers require it. Freight service definitions are defined at the SetID level using the Maintain Freight Services page. The freight service definition code is based on the services provided by the third-party provider. Each freight service definition is associated with a combination of carrier ID, ship via code, and freight type in the PeopleSoft system. |

Enter data in this free form reference field. The value entered here is stored at the delivery level. If a freight reference number is returned on the freight response then it is stored in this field. |
