Overview

Use the O/E Ship-Via Codes screen to create and manage ship-via codes, which identify the shipping methods or carriers you use to deliver goods to customers (such as courier, air mail, and parcel post).

Specifying Ship-Via Codes in Order Entry Transactions

When creating an order, if you select a ship-via code you have set up, Order Entry displays the description for that ship-via code with the document information.

  • If you specify a default ship-via code for a customer (on the Invoicing tab of the A/R Customers screen), Order Entry displays that ship-via code by default when you enter a new document for that customer.
  • If you specify a primary ship-to location for a customer (on the A/R Ship-To Locations screen), Order Entry displays that ship-to location by default when you enter a new document for that customer.
