Automatic freight amount calculation

Infor LN FP6

In Infor LN FP6, the freight amount cannot be automatically (re)calculated for a sales order line, sales order delivery line, or sales quotation line.

New in Infor LN 10

If the Rate and Carrier/LSP Selection at Order Line parameter is set to Cheapest or Prioritized in the Freight Rates and Costs Parameters (fmfrc0100m000) session, during sales order/quotation entry or update, the carrier with the lowest rates or with the highest priority is automatically selected. In Infor LN 10, the freight invoice amount is then automatically (re)calculated.

Note
  • If the Freight Amount Binding check box is selected in the Sales Quotation Lines (tdsls1501m000), Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000), or Delivery Lines (tdsls4101m100) session, LN only recalculates the Freight Amount if the ordered quantity changes. Other changes do not affect the freight amount.
  • During confirmation of a final shipment, the freight amount is left unchanged. During confirmation of a non-final shipment, the freight amount is divided pro rata between the delivery lines.
  • The freight amount is based on the ordered quantity and ordered amount, not the delivered quantity.
  • If the new Show Calculation Log check box is selected in the Sales Quotation Lines (tdsls1501m000), Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000), or Delivery Lines (tdsls4101m100) session, you can view how the freight amount is calculated in a freight amount calculation log.
