- Cash on Delivery: Indicates the amount that the driver must collect from the customer upon delivery of the goods.
Caution: The COD amount will be automatically calculated when the postal package is created. As all of the other information on a freight document, it will not be automatically updated whenever new lines are added to the freight document. To retrieve the exact COD amount for the postal package use the F8 Accumulate COD function key which automatically re-calculates the COD amount and updates it to this panel.
The calculated amount will be a sum of all order lines including VAT plus any distributed shipment fees. This means that the calculated cash-on-delivery amount will exclude all additional fees that are added during invoicing, such as e.g., order header fees and surcharges.
