F/S Order Entry

Important! If Freight SmartLink is activated in a company and you have set the "Create Shipment Review when invoicing" to "Create" or "Create and export" in F/S Options > Freight Charges, the OE Transactions > F/S Order Entry and F/S Shipment Entry must be used instead of OE Order entry and OE Shipment Entry when invoicing OE Sales Orders and OE Shipments.

The underlying OE screen functionality is the same as the standard Sage 300 Order Entry functionality. The custom Freight SmartLink Screens include additional functionality, depending on the options configured in F/S Setup > Options to automatically create and export the associated Shipment Review and calculate and validate freight calculations before invoicing OE Orders and Shipments.

For details, refer to F/S Setup>F/S Options

 

When you use the OE Transactions > F/S Order Entry custom screen, you can:

  1. Manually click the "Calc Freight" button to add the Freight Detail line to the OE Sales Orders based on your configured Zones in F/S Setup > Options \ Zones Tab.
  2. If validation is configured in F/S Setup > Options \ Freight Charges Tab \ OE Order Section, validation messages are displayed if Freight has not been added to the OE Sales Order before invoicing
  3. Auto create the Shipment Review document when invoicing the sales order- if "Create Shipment Review when invoicing" is set to "Create" in F/S Setup > Options \ Freight Charges Tab \ O/E Order Entry.
  4. Auto create the Shipment Review document and Export for Freight Carrier when voicing the Sales order- if "Create Shipment Review when invoicing" is set to "Create and Export" in in F/S Setup > Options \ Freight Charges Tab \ O/E Order Entry.
