Freight - Update price based on 'verified' weight

How it works

Freight costs are prices at the quote stage based on the weight of the quoted product:
In this example we have a quoted weight of 175.31lb and a cost of $291.70:



In the jobs ‘Dispatch’ tab, you can see the quoted weight and cost:



Once the job is finished production, we find the actual weight is heaver (or lighter) that quoted.
Enter the confirmed weight in the ‘Verified’ field:



Clicking the ‘Save’ button recalculates the price and updates this based on the verified weight:


Based on your settings for handling freight changes, the cost can be added as a ‘Misc Charge’:





To enable this functionality, please contact our customer support team.
