This task is available only if Yes or Actual is selected in the Use Shipping Code to Calculate Freight field in Sales Order Options.

Overview

Use Shipping Rate Maintenance to establish shipping codes for automatically calculating freight charges in Sales Order Entry and  S/O Invoice Data Entry. A freight charge table is created for each shipping code, with shipping rates determined by ship weight and, optionally, by ship zone.

If the eBusiness Manager module is installed, you can also specify ship codes for use on your eBusiness Manager Web pages.

You can use ZIP Codes as ship zones. The ship zone is automatically set to the customer's ship-to ZIP Code, and freight charges are calculated based on the ship weight, amount, or product line entered on the Charges tab. The shipping code method used should be based on the number of individual shipment locations, the number of individual freight carriers, and the degree of simplicity you want in shipping rate calculation.

When you enter the last field on the Main tab, the Charges tab automatically appears.
