How do I add or manage the freight component in an order?
There are two ways to add freight/shipping charges to a sales order:
- Use the shipping charge field.
- Enter the freight amount in the Shipping charge field at the top of the order entry page.
- This value is added to the invoice total but is excluded from sales reports.
- Add a FREIGHT product line.
- Add a non-diminishing product line (e.g. FREIGHT or SHIPPING) to the order.
- This product line will appear as part of the order items and will be included in sales reports.
- To exclude these charges from reports, tick the "Exclude non-diminishing" filter option on the sales reports page.
