Use the Shipping Control F/M program to create and maintain the Shipping Control Record, which consists of UPS rates and weight limits. If your system is integrated with Clippership, you will not need to edit this program.
The Shipping Control Record stores the defaults used in Freight Entry, the flags for the C.O.D. label printing and the UPS Weight F/M.
As UPS changes its rates and weight limits, use this enter the new amounts in this program.
If you have a package configuration (weight and value) that is used often, its information can be set up in this program as the defaults for weight and declared value in the Freight Entry.
NOTE: The Freight Subsystem has been approved by UPS as a host computerized manifest system. However, each user will have to contact the appropriate UPS representatives and get their approval as well. Also, FACTS can use other carriers/freight companies; just enter their information instead of the information from UPS.
