Freight/Shipping Charge Calculation

[Former Member]

Hello SAP Forum,

What are the different ways to charge freight to customers based on weight and distance (point of departure (shipping point/plant) to point of arrival)?

Can this be achieved by implementing shipment cost document? And will the charge on the shipment cost document be copied to the customer invoice?

Can the shipment cost document be split by plant/delivery date?

Thank you for your help and support..
