	<HelpTopic><AimSection><Paragraph>Use this session to generate <Link href="/baanerp/fm/glossary/glossary#000073" role="glossary">freight order clusters</Link> from freight order lines. A freight order cluster consists of a header and freight order cluster lines. A freight order cluster line is the identification of a freight order line that is allocated to the cluster. Freight order lines are combined into a cluster if particular properties match, such as shipping offices, planning groups, ship-from and ship-to addresses, and so on.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>To select the freight order lines that must be clustered, you must enter the selection criteria for these lines in this session. Freight order lines are selected on the criteria that you enter in the fields in the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Selection Range</GUIRef> area of this session.</Paragraph>
