Function Freight, as opposed to inventory, is not bought and sold with Purchase Orders and Sales Orders. Rather, it is
received,
stored in a warehouse, then
shipped to its next destination, using a
Material Receipt ("MR") packaged with the shipment. Adjutant's main screen for processing freight is the
Freight In/Out Processing window. Most freight information is entered on the
Master tab.
