Use strategic freight calculations to increase the actual freight charges on an order to help offset the loss of freight charges for freight exempt customers or reduced freight charges. You can select which customers you charge strategic freight when they purchase products from you.
To use a strategic freight in order entry, a customer must have a customer category and customer size assigned, and be set to use strategic freight. The ship via on the order must also be set to use strategic freight.
To set a customer to use strategic freight:
From the Maintenance > Price Maintenance > Strategic Pricing menu, select Strategic Pricing Maintenance to display the Strategic Pricing Maintenance window.
In the left pane, click Customers to display the customer settings.
In the Customer field, enter the customer you want to set up to use strategic freight.
Select the Use Strategic Freight check box, to indicate you want to use strategic freight for this customer in order entry.
From the File menu, select Save to save your customer settings.
