Order Entry - Delivery/Fuel Surcharge

The Delivery/Fuel Surcharge feature allows stores to charge a fee for items delivered.  If you're interested in adding this feature to your system contact Database Support.

DST recommends sending a letter to your customers announcing the surcharge.  A sample Delivery Letter is available to stores to use.  

Delivery / Fuel Surcharge Process 
A custom menu path is provided that allows users to set the desired delivery/fuel surcharge.  All first releases will have an automatic delivery/fuel surcharge added. See field 7 Freight.  The delivery/fuel surcharge will not be applied to second, third, etc. releases. 

The operator will have the option to ZERO out the delivery charge on multiple invoices to prevent a duplication of the fuel surcharge on the same delivery. 

DST will add a custom menu path to Menu 10, which will provide the option of excluding specific customers from receiving a delivery/fuel surcharge. 

Enter 'A' to add a customer or 'R' to remove a customer for the exempt list.
