How You Can Change Shipping Cost on Transfer Orders

You can change transfer order shipping costs on the Record Shipping Costs page, whether or not the shipment or shipment lines are open, confirmed, or closed.

However, for delivery lines associated with transfer orders, you can't make changes to the shipping costs after a confirmed shipment is interfaced to inventory. You can still view shipping costs, but you can't update them.

Access the Record Shipping Costs page from the Manage Shipments and Manage Shipment Lines pages to view, change, cancel, or record new shipping costs.

Oracle Shipping performs two validations on transfer order costs. They include:

  • Protecting against duplicate freight costs

    You can't add a new shipping charge when the same shipping charge is currently in the freight cost table against the same delivery line.

  • Disallowing changes after interfacing to Inventory

    Shipping costs tied to a transfer order are passed to Oracle Fusion Cloud Inventory Management and onto Oracle Costing. Once the confirmed shipment lines are interfaced to Oracle Inventory Management, Costing is triggered to pick up these costs. You can't change shipping costs after confirmed shipping lines have been interfaced to Oracle Inventory Management.

    Note: This restriction applies to delivery lines associated with transfer orders only.
