Shipment

A Shipment records the courier leg of a delivery: pickup address and contact, delivery address, the parcels with dimensions and weight, the carrier, tracking number and shipment value. It is created from a Delivery Note so the link between goods, customer and consignment is kept, and it can be used for a shipment to Pokhara by bus counter just as well as an international courier. It does not move stock or post to the ledger; the courier's bill is a separate Purchase Invoice to a freight expense or, for imports, to Expenses Included In Valuation. Submitting it locks the consignment details for later claims.

1. 01Open the submitted Delivery Note and click Create > Shipment.
2. 02Confirm the pickup and delivery addresses and contacts.
3. 03Add parcel rows, or pick a Shipment Parcel Template, with weight and dimensions.
4. 04Enter the carrier, service and tracking number once booked.
5. 05Submit. Record the courier's bill later as a Purchase Invoice.
