      <Paragraph>For business scenarios where freight costing and invoicing is
		based on the actual shipment build in warehouse management, ERP Enterprise allows you to
		calculate freight cost for the shipment and to select the best carrier and
		transport means group or transport means combination. In these scenarios, the
		shipments are not created by the planning engine <Link href="/baanerp/fm/lbd/fmlbd0280m000" role="session">Generate Plan (fmlbd0280m000)</Link> session in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight</GUIRef> package, but by <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh" role="package">Warehousing</GUIRef> and
		are the actual/physical shipments issued from the warehouse. The warehouse
		shipments are passed to the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight</GUIRef> package after the shipment is confirmed in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh" role="package">Warehousing</GUIRef>. After
		the warehouse shipments are received in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight</GUIRef>, the
		freight loads and shipments are created and the freight costs can be invoiced
		to the customers.</Paragraph>
