Server User Guide, Version 7.6
The Handling Charge screen consists of options for both FedEx Express and FedEx Ground shipping. If
you want to configure a handling charge for both shipping types, you must make entries in each section of
the screen. The Handling Charge Calculation section of the Handling Charge screen let you select the
type of handling charge to be configured. The fields required to designate a handling charge calculation
are defined as follows:
Handling Charge Calculation:
Field Name Description
Fixed Amount Click this selection to add a predetermined handling charge to each
package/shipment. For example, select Fixed Amount if you charge
$5.00 handling for all packages regardless of the package value or
shipping charge.
Percent of Freight Charge Click this selection if you want FSMS to calculate a fixed percentage
of the list rate (undiscounted) shipping charge to be applied as a
handling fee. For example, if you select this option, you may enter
3.00 (%) to be calculated from the shipping charge for the package to
be assessed as the handling charge for the shipment.
