F – Freight No Sales

To set an item up specifically as a Freight charge use the Memo of F. When this "part" is applied, the item will cost for Freight Cost and Freight Selling. The cost amount is not required on freight but when it is entered the system can report the profits more effectively. The F memo also works like the zero memo and does not prompt for a quantity or track the quantity sold. Typically F memo items will have the line code of FRT and be setup with a separate Revenue General Ledger Account Number.

 

Notice the part number of FRTINCOMING (this is a system default and will work best on the Purchasing side - the FRT line code will tie in with the Subtotals at point of sale for easy selling.
