Adjustment Types

Adjusting Only

When you adjust a cost the system takes the original cost and adds or subtracts an amount to it to create the new cost.

  1. Enter a Shipment Cost.
  2. Enter an adjustment reason for the cost.

Reversing and Adjusting

Reversing and adjusting causes the system to create a new cost that negates the original cost. Then it creates another new cost with the new cost value that you specify.

  1. Complete the page as you would when you define the shipment costs.

Reversing Only

The system reverses a cost by creating a new cost with a negative amount that matches the amount of the original cost.

  1. Enter an adjustment reason for the cost.

Creating a New Shipment Cost

When you click this button, you create a new cost record. 

  1. Complete the page as you would when you define the shipment costs.

Note: To make the adjustment reason optional, you need to set the property glog.webserver.shipment.adjustShipmentCost.isAdjustReasonMandatory to false.
