Defining Organization Unit Shipping GL Accounts

You must first set up the GL accounts before you can define the shipping GL accounts. Please refer to Defining Organization Unit New GL Accounts for more information. Shipping accounts are needed to pay for the shipping fees.

When a shipping account definition record is created, no orders can exist that have invoice dates on or after the newly defined definition.
