Quantum VS Help: Sales Desk |
If you are not using either Carriage Charges and/or Premium Delivery Charges on your system you may still add a haulage charge to the completed Sales Order/Quote/Sales Enquiry using the standard 'haulage' functionality in Quantum VS.
On completion of the Sales Order/Quote/Sales Enquiry, either:
the Add Manual Price Line to... window will pop up, prompting you to add a standard haulage charge automatically, as described below;
alternatively: you may manually add the haulage charge as a Manual line on the Sales Order/Quote/Sales Enquiry using the standard method. See Manual Lines And Sales Documents.
If the Add Manual Price Line to... window appears when Completing a Sales Order (or Quote or Sales Enquiry) you may add a standard haulage charge as a Manual line.
Note: The Add Manual Price Line to... window will only appear if: (a) you have just completed a 'Delivered' or 'Direct' Sales Order or Quote or Sales Enquiry; and (b) Carriage Charges and/or Premium Delivery Charges have NOT been set up on your system (see Delivery Charges Maintenance); and (c) the customer qualifies for haulage charges (i.e. a haulage charge has been entered in the Haulage Charge field within the General Details tab of the customer's Customer record).
For example:
The Add Manual Price Line to... window contains the following fields. Some are read-only, whereas others may be manipulated by the user:
