		<Paragraph>If a freight order is generated from a sales order (delivery) line, the freight order has the status <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm/domains/foc.lnst#expc" role="enum">Expected</GUIRef>. The information that goes to the freight order only contains shipping related data, such as the customer-requested date, addresses, shipping constraints, carrier, route, terms of delivery, and planning responsibility. The original sales order number, position, and sequence number can be referenced in the freight order line. The calculated freight costs can be returned to the sales order (delivery) line.</Paragraph>
		<List><ListIntro>If a load plan is created for the freight order, the freight order has the status <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm/domains/foc.lnst#plnd" role="enum">Planned</GUIRef>.

Which of these session is started depends on the status of the freight order and whether the freight order belongs to a load plan, or a cluster.
