FedEx Freight Quote

Overview

By default, the freight that populates the Freight field on a sales document is the Standard Freight rate. The FedEx Freight Quote feature adds the ability to quote International Freight rates from a sales order and to select the account at the time of processing. Using a FedEx account, SalesPad can connect to the FedEx system and calculate the freight on demand.

Note: FedEx Rate Service: FedEx is no longer giving out meter numbers. You must have an existing meter number with FedEx to use this function.

User Defined Fields (Optional)
