Miscellaneous Charges

When you click Totals and then click Misc charges in Sales Order Maintenance (OE), EDI/Sales Quote Maintenance (QOE), Sales Shipment Confirmation (OC), and RMA Maintenance (RMA) programs you can enter miscellaneous charges.

Miscellaneous charge codes are maintained in Miscellaneous Charge Codes Maintenance (TMSM). The charge can either be a fixed amount or one that is calculated based on the order's weight or value. An initial miscellaneous charge code may be defaulted based on the order's freight payment terms (see Freight Codes Maintenance).

For Misc codes 1-5:

   Misc code

Conditional

Select a miscellaneous charge code. If a code is selected, an entry in the Amount field is required.

Note
A miscellaneous charge can either be a fixed amount or one that is calculated based or the order's weight or value (see Miscellaneous Charge Codes Maintenance). An initial miscellaneous charge code may be defaulted based on the freight payment terms associated with the order.

You can set up calculated miscellaneous charge codes to always be treated as a charge so you can apply charges to a credit memo (e.g., a restocking fee or a cancelation charge). When such a code is added to a credit memo, the amount offsets the credit the customer receives.

   Amount

Conditional
12 numeric in the format 9999999999.99

The amount cannot be entered directly for a calculated charge.

If you entered a charge for a fixed amount charge it will be used. The amount can also default based on the freight payment miscellaneous charge amount entered or the amount associated with the miscellaneous charge code.
