The Ship Via is a code that states the preferred means of shipping entered in "Customer Entry” in ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE (6.1.1 field 21) and “POS Order Entry” in POINT OF SALE (1.1 field 4).

The Ship Via is validated in “Customer Entry” (6.1.1, field 21), but NOT validated in “POS Order Entry” in POINT OF SALE (1.1, field 4).

You may enter a free form Ship Via at “POS Order Entry” in POINT OF SALE (1.1 field 4). The Ship Via Code, not the description, will then print on the Invoice.
