Let’s use UPS.
I have our carrier set up for Daily Rates.
I can’t seem to find a good answer of Actual versus Billable and how that changes based on carrier setting.
If we do prepay, does it use actual?
If we do freight collect/3rd party, does it do billable?
We use the List and Customer Rate basis’ for FedEx (have 2 separate carriers in QS for this) so can’t speak towards daily. My understanding from what I see in our system is… List = full published list price is returned to ShipHead_MFFreightAmt our discounted rate is returned to ShipHead.MFDiscFreight. Customer = our negotiated discount rate hits both of those fields. If shipped FedEx Recipient, 3rd party, etc. no price is returned to either field, it should be sent at the customers discounted amount.
Payflag field drives what hits the customer invoice if anything.
Blank (default), FedEx Prepaid, UPS Prepaid – Negotiated freight will be charged to our account; the ShipHead_MFFreightAmt will be added to the invoice and billed to the client.
FedEx Recipient – FedEx ONLY. For air and ground FedEx parcel Shipments. Bills recipient/consignee for freight. No shipping charges added to customer invoice or returned to ShipHead table
Shipper – Free freight to customer – does not post charges back to the customer invoice. Our discounted rate retunred to MFDiscFreight, nothing returned to MFFreightAmt
Third Party – Bills freight charges to a third party account. Requires account number. Nothing returned to ShipHead amt fields
UPS Freight Collect (NOT COD) – For air and ground UPS parcel Shipments. No shipping charges added to customer invoice. No values returned to ShipHead fields
