Shipping office matrices
A shipping office matrix is used to link shipping offices to freight orders. If the attribute values of the shipping office matrix match the values of an originating order of a freight order, the shipping office linked to the shipping office matrix is linked to the freight order. The attributes of a shipping office matrix refer to the attributes of originating orders of freight orders. If there is no match, the shipping office linked to the warehouse of the originating order is linked to the freight order. You can link shipping offices to warehouses in the Warehouses by Shipping Office (fmfmd0185m000) session.
