If you override the freight charges for the line items, the Freight field on the Totals tab reflects the total freight charges.
If you override the freight charges for the Freight field on the Totals tab, the system attempts to distribute freight charges among all line items on the purchase order that have not been overridden.
The override amount is marked by an asterisk in the Freight field. The system prompts for confirmation, if the override amount is less that the previous value of the Freight field.
To override freight charges and enter a freight carrier:
From the Purchase menu, select Purchase Order Entry to display the Purchase Order Entry window.
Display the purchase order for which you want to override freight charges.
Click the Totals tab.
In the Freight field, enter freight charges.
In the Freight Carrier field, enter the freight carrier.
If the Freight Carrier field is left blank, the vendor filling the purchase order whose name is in the Ship From field on the P/O is the freight vendor.
