Hi Murali,

Thanks,

Pls correct me if iam wrong, i have an understanding of freight costing, it is like create condition records for KF00 and HD00 and determine it in the sales order and then in the billing document.

or

do we have to process like create delivery document VL01n, and then shipment document VT01n and create shipment cost document VI01 in which we have to determine the shipment condition typer and its values.

Pls suggest

Hi,

Freight Conditions

Freight rates are the basis for the shipment costs calculation. The totals of the different freight rates that are used for a particular transaction give the shipment costs. Freight rates are stored in the system in the form of condition rates that can be created at a very detailed level.
