Edit - Program - Small Order Surcharge

A small order surcharge table can be established where a handling/picking fee, etc. can be automatically calculated and then applied to customer orders based on the total value of the order, as an extra charge before GST. You can set a flag in the Debtor master file for individual customers so that the surcharge can be made to apply or not apply. The amount calculated can be overridden at the point of processing a sales order for a customer.

 

Technical Tip

  • If you want the small order surcharge to apply to a particular customer, select an option other than No in the Small Order Surcharge field on the Debtor File Update screen - Extra tab (refer to "File - Debtor - Extra").
  • The option to alter this surcharge is controlled by the setting in the Override Small Order Surcharge field on the User File Update screen - Main tab (refer to "Maintenance - Edit UserIDs - 1. Main").

When a customer's order is processed, the surcharge is shown on the Total screen.
