	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>To use additional cost calculation, you must select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm/frc/fmfrc0240m000#addl.costs" role="field">Calculate Additional Costs</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm/frc/fmfrc0240m000" role="session">Calculate Freight Costs (fmfrc0240m000)</GUIRef> session. The criteria for shipment lines and cluster lines to be charged with extra costs and the amounts are maintained in additional cost sets. If a shipment line or a cluster line matches the criterion of an additional cost set, extra charges are added to the shipment line or cluster line.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>An additional cost set consists of a code and a description. To each additional cost set, you must link a selection criterion and one or more cost items. In the cost items, the actual additional cost amounts are stored.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>Additional cost sets are defined in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm/frc/fmfrc2110m000" role="session">Additional Cost Sets (fmfrc2110m000)</GUIRef> session. Selection criteria are linked to additional cost sets in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm/frc/fmfrc2120m000" role="session">Additional Cost Sets by Carrier, Item and Address (fmfrc2120m000)</GUIRef> session.

		<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Selection criterion</SectionTitle>
			<Paragraph>An additional cost set has one selection criterion. The following elements are available as selection criteria for additional cost sets:</Paragraph>
			<List><ListItem>Carrier</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Ship-from address</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Ship-to address</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Item. In this case, the item is not a cost item, but an item to be transported.</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>If the selection criterion of an additional cost set matches one of the properties of a shipment line or a cluster line, the cost items of the additional cost set can be used to add extra costs to the shipment line or cluster line.</Paragraph>

			<Paragraph>The selection criterion of cost set A, as shown in the first example, is carrier Road Express, Inc. If a cluster line has carrier Road Express, Inc., the calculation engine checks the cost items of cost set A to see if the cost items match the properties of the cluster line. If, for example, the weight of the goods listed on the cluster line is between 10 kg and 20 kg, the cost amount of EUR 10 defined for cost item 1 is added to the cluster line.</Paragraph>

			<ProcedureList><ListItem>The calculation engine selects the additional cost set whose selection criterion matches the corresponding properties of a particular shipment line or cluster line.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Of the selected additional cost set, the calculation engine selects the cost item whose cost base and upper/lower limits match the properties of the item on the shipment line or cluster line.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>The costs defined for the selected cost item are added to the costs of the shipment line or cluster line.</ListItem>
			</ProcedureList>

		<Note><SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
			<Paragraph>If more than one additional cost set matches a particular shipment line or cluster line, all matching additional cost sets are used to add additional costs to the shipment line or cluster line. If more than one cost item matches the properties of a shipment line or cluster line, the cost amounts of all matching cost items are added to the shipment line or cluster line. As a result, the cost amounts of several cost items from several additional cost sets can be added to a shipment line or cluster line.</Paragraph>
