Field help (SALECICT)

The Incoterm codes, set by the International Chamber of Commerce, seek to standardize the terms the most used in the international commerce by defining the respective responsibilities of the seller and the buyer agreed upon on establishement of the sales contract by a unique word similarly understood throughout the world.

The Incoterm code, controlled in Incoterm table is used in the INTRASTAT file (Exchange of goods declaration). It can also be used to define the price lists.

When creating a quote, an order, a delivery or an invoice, the Incoterm code is initialized to the Incoterm code defined by default for the ship-to customer.

This Incoterm code can be modified. Concerning the quotes and orders, the Incoterm code is unique for the document as a whole. When transforming a document, the Incoterm code is passed on to the child document.

 The code and the Incoterm city can also be accessed via the menuOptions / Informations douanières.
