Charge category and charge name

Charge categories contain a group of related charge names that can be used when a particular category is used.

Charge categories are used to add a charge for an order header or order line. The charge name that is used on the order header or on the order line might or might not be defined in the system. Charge names are names of the actual charges included in the charge definition.

  • Charge categories are as follows:
    • Shipping Discount
    • Shipping Charge
    • VAT
    • Shipping VAT
  • Charge names are as follows:
