Enter Freight Price List Header

Explanation

This activity is used to create a site delivery freight price list. A site delivery freight price list is created for a specific ship-via code or a transport method and the freight charges are specified for different freight zones.

It is indicated in the freight price list header if the the freight charges should be calculated based on the volume or the weight.

There can be only one active freight price list for a valid site, ship via code and forwarder combination.
