Freight charge on Sales Order

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by Eric Zhu

Hi, we sell products/items to customers, and sometimes we charge our customer freight.

We currently using a G/L account to charge customer freight costs.

When a sales order consists of both item and G/L (freight),after fully shipped the order from Warehouse Shipment, the Complete Shipped filed will still show a "No" even all items are shipped.

Is there any solutions to this? Or I should change the way how I charge freight to customer?

Thanks.

Hi,

Assign "Charge (Item)" as the type in sales line below the sales item line.

and go to line and click "item charge assingment" and assign to the line item.

Hi Bala,

I've done some testing, and I don't think changing the G/L to item charge can solve my issue.

the Completely Shipped filed still showing No even though my item has been shipped already.

Is the G/L Account line is also shipped? Even thought it is not a item it needs to be shipped.

1 on sales line and 1 been shipped.

I use Warehouse Shipment to ship, but it won't pick up the G/L, so the G/L line on sales order showing not shipped, that's why the Completely Shipped showing No.

Sorry but you have to do a customization to ship the GL Lines, it cannot be done in standard. or after warehouse shipment is posted you need post it again from the sales order screen the G/L Lines.

But that means- customer will get two invoice, one for the items and second one for the freight charge ( GL) ?

Is there any way to combine both on one invoice - item & freight charge?

Hi, of cource, you can do this. But when you manage the AR, the payers (customers) are merged into one.

Hope this will help.

Thanks.

Hi Eric

You can only ship inventory using a warehouse shipment. Therefore, any order with G/L, Item charges or service item must be re-shipped through the sales header to be completely shipped.

One way of solving your problem will be to batch post your sales orders after the posting of the warehouse shipment.

Here I have an order with a charge, I post the warehouse shipment and I am left with the charge not-shipped

The order is partially shipped

I run a Batch post job. Note that I have filters so the routine does not try to ship orders that are not supposed to be shipped with this routine

The order is now fully shipped, including the freight charge and it can be invoiced as one document
