| # Terms of delivery The terms of delivery define the agreements with the business partner concerning the way the goods are delivered. The terms of delivery can include the point of title passage. The point of title passage is the point at which the legal ownership changes. At this point, the risk passes from the seller to the buyer. On the relevant order documents, LN prints the following information: The terms of delivery code. The place specification. The text you attach to the terms of delivery. If the terms of delivery text is available in the language of the document, this is printed, otherwise the English text is printed. If the terms of delivery do not include a place specification, LN prints the place specification of the point of title passage if one is supplied. Points of title passage You can define points of title passage in two ways: In the Terms of Delivery (tcmcs0141m000) session, you can define generic points of title passage. This means that you can indicate that the point of title passage is either the point of origin or the point of destination. For the place specification you can then select a part of the ship-from or ship-to address, for example, the city, the country, or the postal address. In the Points of Title Passage (tcmcs0142m000) session, you can define specific points of title passage, for example, that correspond with specific addresses. The point of title passage can consist of an address defined in the Addresses (tccom4530m000) session. In that case, for the Place Specification you can select an address part of the address. LN prints the place specification of the point of title passage on the order documents if the terms of delivery do not include a place specification.
