How to: Get Return Shipment Lines for Item Charges

It is possible to enter item charges, such as freight or handling charges, and link them to the items that they relate to.

The item charge can be entered on a separate invoice or on the purchase document where the items that the item charge relates to are listed. For more information, see How to: Enter Item Charges on Separate Purchase Invoices and How to: Enter Item Charges on the Original Purchase Document respectively. The following procedure uses a purchase order as an example, but the same procedure can apply to other purchase documents.

If you want to link an item charge to items that have already been posted as return shipments, that is, items that you have returned to your vendor, then you must use the Get Return Shipment Lines function.
