RE: Special Charges AS400 v6.0.02 March 98 C/S -- BPCS-L

Martha,

If you decide that you are going to have to calculate the amount manually
and just need a place to put the charge, there is always the Shipping Charge
field in ORD700D2-02 (Sales Order Entry - Shipping Information). This field
has its own CEA macro (CI01CH) so the amount can be credited to any account
you want. This amount can be added or modified at time of billing also.

Best wishes.

Geo.

PS. I've heard of badger hunting, but Badger Mining?

Thanks Peggy.  I had reached the same conclusion from the answers.  I won't
be using the special line for this.  We're talking about a charge for every
shipment, so to manually calculate the amount and add a special line is a
nightmare for Customer Service.  We do use PRO a lot and will come up with a
way to handle our issue there.
