This setting allows a fixed freight charge to be added to all Orders and Invoices automatically. The freight charge will be added both to Invoices created directly in the Sales Ledger and to those created from Sales Orders. The freight charge will be shown in the Freight field at the bottom of the 'Items' card of the Invoice and Order screens.

Item: Paste Special Item register; A record in the Item register for Freight must exist: enter its Item Number here. Note that the Item must have a Base Price specified. This Base Price will be the freight charge in each Invoice, and the VAT Code and Sales Account will also be taken from the Item.
GP Percentage of Price: Specify the percentage of the Freight price that is to represent the cost of the freight for inclusion in Gross Profit calculations (e.g. in the GP - Invoices report). If you do not enter a figure, Freight will not be included in such calculations, even if a Cost Price has been specified for the Item.
