Secondary charges are non-moving charges that are based on shipments or shipment groups. For example, there may be a secondary charge for fumigating a vessel.

Secondary charges are used for buy-side activity only to pay service provider invoices. Oracle Transportation Management determines the cost of a specific secondary charge based on the transport mode and rate information entered on the secondary charge.

Oracle Transportation Management creates secondary charges during shipment planning or you can create them manually. When you create a secondary charge manually, you must associate it with a shipment group or shipment. If the shipment or shipment group with which the secondary charge is associated is deleted, the secondary charge is deleted.

Note: In order to apply secondary charges for "shipment special service" or "shipment stop special service", you have to use the Add third party service provider action on the shipment.

Note: See the glog.shipgroup.createShipmentGroup.useShipmentDomain property to create a secondary charge shipment in the shipment group domain.

Create Secondary Charge

1. Use the Shipment ID to identify the secondary charge. A secondary charge is represented as a shipment in Oracle Transportation Management and acts as the basis for invoice activity.
2. Select the Transport Mode that applies for the secondary charge. You can enter a pre-defined transport mode or define a new one that applies specifically to secondary charges. Define transport modes in Power Data (Contract and Rate Management > Rates and Codes).
3. Use the Service Provider ID field to enter the service provider who receives payment for the secondary charge.
4. The Total Actual Cost field displays the cost determined when the shipment is executed based on the rate offering and record associated with the shipment. Auto Approve Rules in Financials compare the total actual cost with the net amount due on the invoice. You can enter a value in this field manually.
5. The Rate Offering that applies for the secondary charge displays. The rate offering defines a general contract with a service provider. It is selected during shipment planning based on the service provider and secondary charges rules. You can enter a rate offering manually by selecting the appropriate offering for the service provider associated with the secondary charge.
6. The Rate Record that applies for the secondary charge displays. The rate record contains the rate cost information that determines the actual cost of the secondary charge. Oracle Transportation Management assigns a rate record during shipment planning based on the service provider and secondary charges rules.
7. Enter the required Accessorial Code Profile ID.
8. Enter the required Special Service Profile ID.

   • Destination: Use the destination of the transportation shipment as the source and destination locations of the secondary charge shipment.

   • Port of Load: Use the port of load of the primary leg shipment as the source and destination locations of the secondary charge shipment.
   • Source: Use the source location of the transportation shipment as the source and destination locations of the secondary charge shipment.
   • Source to Destination: Use the source and destination locations of the transportation shipment as the source and destination locations of the secondary charge shipment.
