You may want to restrict certain types of shipping from customers who place orders through one of your branches. For example, if Branch 3 is in a remote location, and UPS Gold is an expensive shipping method from that branch, you can restrict customers from the freight exempt status at Branch 3 for UPS Gold.
This procedure overrides the setting in the Freight Out Exempt field on the Customer Maintenance window.
Perform the following procedures in the following order:
To set the customer freight out exemption:
From the Maintenance menu, select Ship Via to display the Ship Via Maintenance window.
In the ShipVia field, enter the ship via to which to apply a branch override.
On the Primary/Freight tab, in the Override Customer Freight Out Exempt field, enter B for branch. For more information, see Assigning Automatic Freight and Handling Charges to a Ship Via.
Override Freight column on the Ship Via Branch Overrides dialog box, described below, now accepts the override.
To override the customer freight out exemption for a branch:
From the Maintenance > Branch menu, select Branch to display the Branch Maintenance window.
In the Branch field, enter a branch ID to display the branch record.
Select Maintenance >Ship Via Branch Overrides to display the Ship Via Branch Overrides dialog box.
Any ship via to which you applied the "B" setting in the Override Customer Freight Out Exempt field in Ship Via Maintenance displays a check mark in the Override Freight column.
If you want this setting to override the entry in the Override Customer Freight Out Exempt With field in the Freight Data, set the Ship ViaOverride? column to Yes.
