Create a New Method of Delivery

To create a new method of delivery

1. Go to the page for creating a new company (in the Company directory).

Note: The Method of delivery directory is inaccessible through the Main menu. You can go to it via the Customer directory by clicking the Create new option in the list of the Method of delivery field. You can also go to the Delivery method directory through other Method of delivery fields available in sales and purchase documents. 

2. In the General area, select a company type (Customer, Vendor or both). 

3. Under the Accounting tab, locate the Method of delivery field, and then open the field list by clicking an arrow next to the field. 

4. On the list, click the Create new option. 

A new tab opens in your browser. You are taken to a form page for defining a new method of delivery. The page consists of the General area only. Meanwhile, the page from which you accessed this form remains open in another tab. Information entered in it is not saved automatically.

5. Provide a name for the delivery method and enter its description if required.

6. Click Save. 

The delivery method is added to the system. 

To see the created delivery method on the list of active delivery methods

• Return to the Company page, and then open the list of the Method of delivery field.
