Creating Freight Invoices

Use the Create Freight Invoiceoption in the Freight Audit Queue to collect freight on an order that has already been invoiced to the customer. You create a new freight generation and can edit any information, such as the ship via or status, and send the new generation for invoicing to the customer.

Note: The system uses the settings defined in the Freight Audit Queue Setup control maintenance record for the default information when creating the invoice.

To create a freight invoice:

1. Display the queue with your defined parameters.

2. Locate the order for which you want to create a freight invoice.

3. In any column for that line item, right-click and select Create Freight Invoice.

Eclipse creates a new generation on the selected order and displays a confirmation.

4. Click OK at the confirmation window.

Sales Order Entry opens with the order displayed to the Totals tab and automatically opens the OE Freight Distribution/Estimation window.

5. Enter the freight amount required in the Incoming Billable or Incoming Expense.

Note: For information about the standard OE Freight Distribution, see Distributing Freight and Handling Charges in the Sales Management documentation.

6. Exit the sales order.

7. Continue working in the Freight Audit Queue or close the window.
