Add Freight or Shipping Charges​

​Introduction

In some cases, you may need to add a separate line item to a requisition for freight or shipping charges, if required by your agency’s process, or for certain vendors or types of purchases. Freight line items can be added at any point up until the fiscal coding is marked as Coding Complete.

1. On the Requisition screen, be sure you have added items to your requisition and saved it.

  • A freight or shipping charge line item can be coded differently than the requisition line item. A freight or shipping charge can also be approved or rejected separately from the line item.
