Freight codes can be used to indicate who’s paying for freight when you record a bulk dispatch. After setting up freight codes, you can assign them to owners and wineries. When an owner or winery with a freight code is selected for a bulk dispatch, their freight code is automatically specified in the operation. You’ll have the option to override the freight code. The selected freight code displays on the Bill of Lading.

When you search for a dispatch, you can filter your search by the freight code. The freight code is also included when you output the Stock Dispatch report to a CSV file. 

Setting Up a Freight Code

To set up a freight code:

1. Click  Set Up in the sidebar. 
2. Click Winemaking, or search for freight code.

3. From the Freight Codes tile, click Configure.
4. Click New Freight Code. The Freight Code window displays.

5. Enter the freight code’s details.
6. Click Save.

Assigning Freight Codes to Owners and Wineries

After you’ve added a freight code, you can assign it to an owner or winery by editing their information in the address book.

When an owner or winery with a freight code is selected for a bulk dispatch, their freight code is automatically specified for the operation.

You can override the freight code by selecting a different one.

Assigning Freight Codes to Bulk Dispatch Operations

When you record a bulk dispatch or inter-winery bulk dispatch, you’ll be able to select the freight code. If the selected Dispatch To has a freight code, that will be selected by default. However, you can select a different freight code from the list, or add a new one.

You’ll be able to change the freight code prior to printing the Bill of Lading.
