Optional Entries for Templates
In a template, you can choose whether to enter a default FOB point, location, description, reference, comment, ship-via code, price list, territory, and terms. You can change any of these entries for individual orders.
-
FOB point — An FOB (free on board) point is the location at which the customer begins paying freight charges on the order. The order is shipped as far as the FOB point at no cost to the customer.
-
Location — Location identifies the warehouse or other place from which inventory items are usually shipped to fill the order. Location codes are defined in Inventory Control.
-
Description, Reference, and Comment — The information you type in these fields applies to the entire order. You can print this information on order confirmations, picking slips, and invoices.
-
Price list — Price lists allow you to vary your basic item prices. For example, you can set up price lists that calculate sale prices, give volume discounts, or assign different regional prices for items. Price list codes are defined in Inventory Control.
-
Tax group — Tax groups are always overridden by the tax group specified in the customer record. This tax group will only be used for an order or shipment if you have not yet added the customer record.
