How Do I Enter a FedEx Order in Prelude?

Enter a FedEx order by updating the Sales Order Header fields, completing the order, and locating shipment tracking information after the order ships.

FedEx order entry is slightly different than a normal stock order entry. Most of the changes take place in the Sales Order Header Screen.

If the customer has COD credit terms, FedEx orders are not an option unless special arrangements have been made with the sales representative.

Step 1 — Complete the Sales Order Entry process.

Complete Steps 1–5 of the Sales Order Entry process until the Sales Order Header Screen appears.

Step 2 — Change the Ship Via code.

Change Ship Via to ZZ.

Step 3 — Update the Route Number.

Change the Route Number to XX.

Note

Changing the Route Number to XX automatically changes the Freight Terms to 02.

If you do not want the customer to pay freight, change the Freight Terms to 01.

Step 4 — Update the Delivery Sequence.

Change the Delivery Sequence to 001.

Step 5 — Add a FedEx delivery comment.

Add a comment line to the order.

Enter:

CP

Then enter:

***FedEx DELIVERY***

Step 6 — Copy the order number.

Press F2 to copy the order number.

Step 7 — Complete the order.

A Pick Ticket will print after the order is complete and/or released from Credit Hold (CRH).

Step 8 — Locate tracking information.

Tracking information will be available in the Order Log (/OLI) after the order ships.
