FOB points (CS208500)
You use this window to create and maintain the list of FOB (which means freight on board or free on board ) points. At these FOB points, the supplier delivers the goods and pays for the freight (cargo) to be loaded to the transportation provided by the carrier. The freight and other expenses for the cargo from that point are borne by the customer.
The FOB points table
You use the buttons in the table toolbar to add a new FOB point or sort or to remove existing FOB points. After you have added a new FOB point to the list and saved it, the system will reorder the items alphabetically.
