Defining freight terms
You can define common codes used when associating a freight term to a Carrier.
A freight term identifies how transportation costs are calculated.
The default freight terms of Sterling Order Management System are:
- Cost Insurance and Freight (CIF) - The freight cost is completely paid by either the Seller, the Enterprise, or the Hub.
- Cost and Freight (CFR) - The freight cost is paid by the Buyer and either the Seller, the Enterprise, or the Hub.
- Free On Board (FOB) - The freight cost is paid by the Buyer.
You can use the Freight Terms tab for creating, modifying, and deleting freight terms.
