    Lawson PO20 has a Ship Freight Terms fields in PO20.2 "shipping tab".

    Can you please explain the difference?

    Do you use both fields or just one? 

    If you use both, what are the description you enter in each field?

      We use the Freight Terms code to determine who pays for shipping costs (shipper vs. us). We use the Shipping Terms code to determine FOB (origin vs. destination). Most of our vendors are set up in PO10.1/PO10.2 to default to FOB Destination/Prepaid. But this can be overridden in PO20.2.

          Is there a field and corresponding table in Lawson where the FOB Point is defined (i.e. Terms of when and where title passes during shipment)?

            The vendor default freight (FREIGHT_TERMS) and shipping terms (FOB_CODE) are found in the POVENDOR and POVENDLOC tables. The terms on the PO are found in the PURCHORDER table.
