Shipping Rates play crucial role while calculating the freight charges into Sage 100 Sales transactions. Today we shall see how to establish shipping codes for automatically calculating freight charges in Sales Order Entry and S/O Invoice Data Entry.
Usually a business person calculates freight charges on the basis of volume of goods, amount of total goods to carry and nature of goods. Therefore, freight charge table is created for each shipping code, with shipping rates determined by ship weight and, optionally, by ship zone.
in Sage 100, When a User enters the last field on the Main tab, the Charges tab automatically appears.
Steps to enable Freight Calculation and define Shipping Rates
For this, User should navigate to the Sales Order page, select Setup, followed by Shipping Order Options and choose the Entry Tab. For the dropdown “Use Shipping Code to Calculate Freight”, “YES” option should be selected as shown in the below screen.
Go to Modules>>Sales Order>>Setup>> Entry tab. Here Freight Calculation can be enabled for an existing shipping rate as shown in below screenshot.
There is option in Sage where a user can define new Shipping Rate with Freight Calculation as well. For this the User needs to navigate to Modules>>Sales Order>>Setup>> Shipping Rate Maintenance screen.
However,user can setup shipping rates in Sage 100. In our next blog, we shall see the setup of shipping rate maintenance in detail.
