Incoterm Maintenance

 

Overview

The Incoterm Maintenance database maintains the different terms of payment for air and/or ocean export services, such as FOB, CIF, and C&F. When you select an incoterm for a shipment, the payment term will default as Prepaid or Collect for both the freight and other charges.

Notes:  Air and Ocean export share the Incoterm Maintenance database.

You can do a lookup to the Incoterm Maintenance table from the Incoterms field on the File Entry screen in the File Op center.
