Tab 2 - Branch Review PO FFA • All PO’s are Full Freight Allowed • Branch to review to make sure Terms are true FFA • FFA – Branch calls Freight Carrier or Vendor and ask why they were charged, to possibly receive credit for original Freight Charge • Not FFA – Freight was pre-paid or collect and CFV has already costed for this Freight charge ***IMPORTANT***This is where Branch can request credit from Vendors, Freight Carriers & Branches

FAQ’s • Does CFV works UPS invoices? • No, CFV does not work United Parcel Service freight charges, because UPS invoices are consolidated charges and CFV can not tie the individual shipments to customers & salesmen. Because CFV does not work these, it is ***Important*** for the Branch to review and cost. • We do however work UPS-Freight & UPS-Overnite. • What if freight is incorporated into the cost of the product? • CFV will cost for the freight charges because we consider incorporated cost into the product as billing your customer.
