Define Ship-From and Ship-To Legal Reporting Units

For shipment transactions, you must define the legal reporting unit associated with the ship-from and ship-to organizations required by fiscal document generation.

The ship-from legal reporting unit is captured during transaction entry on the Update Fiscal Attributes page. For internal transfer shipments and return to supplier shipments, you can define the ship-from legal reporting unit that defaults to the Update Fiscal Attributes page.

The ship-to party and ship-to location are captured during transaction entry on the Edit Shipment page. For internal transfer shipments, you must define the legal reporting unit associated with the ship-to location.
