Freight Terms

Freight is a deep customization that adds Freight Terms thereby replacing Department.

Choose Freight for Department Prefs to apply throughout, starting in Customer Prefs. Then in Customer Prefs, set Default Freight and Edit some of the entries to add Terms.

Freight will then help automate Charges and Costs for freight and applying the Terms. For example if Shipping Connect returns charges, "Free" Freight might replace with $0.

Freight lets you switch Department to Freight to automate shipping charges and costs.



  Contact Freight

Contact Freight lets you set Freight for Contacts used as Ship-To's for big Customers. This lets you keep different Freight Terms for different locations to use automatically.

For large customers with many locations use Contacts to add their Ship-To Addresses. Using Contact and Update Contact imports is easy to manage hundreds or thousands.

For each Contact you can set their Shipping Method, Freight, and sales tax Tax Status. These entries load automatically when you set Ship-To manually or by Auto-Import.



  Contacts Freight

Contacts Freight lets you manage Freight in a Contacts Search to find, display, update. Use the Find dialog or Add (+) Freight as a column in Contacts to see current settings.

For large customers with many locations use Contacts to add their Ship-To Addresses. And, use Contacts Search to Find, Export, or Update many at once for easy managing.

In use old Freight entries will be swapped to the new one with the same name or erased.
